More doggies, great pics on the sand there! ^Q^

Quite a long drive for the day, Bushy! :shock:

What luck with the Croc Bridge leopard, a great selfie there, and right place right time! O:V


What an interesting closeup scuba hyena sighting! :-0 :-0 :-0

Just caught up on your report BC - you guys had some great sightings ^Q^ ^Q^

We’ve just returned from Kruger and I’ll be interested to hear how your trip goes later this year. For us the H4-1 felt very “different”. No major traffic jams as the regular cat sightings seemed to be missing. Maybe it was just an unlucky few days, but many others were saying the same thing - perhaps the flood and reconstruction work has moved animals away for a bit -O-

You sure had luck with the dogs… we always find it a bit of a battle to find them in the July hols

Lots of cat luck, Bushy! ^Q^

Especially with the lion so close and all to yourselves. :-0

Biyamiti looks lovely, and I like the selfies on this trip, something new! :-0

What luck again, Bushy! ^Q^

Dogs, lion, leopard and hyena on one day!

Also love the doggie drinking.

Ja, baboons are a menace these days, they must be sorted...

Hiklarious narration as always!

October can be very hot... 0:
Shot RP \O Ja, October seems to be the worst month for the odd extreme temperature days :-? I have never experienced February in the park, but every other month -O-

Stunning rhino shots in the end and even a cheetah :-0

Until the next time which will hopefully be soon 0/* 0/* 0/*

What sightings again, Bushy! :shock:

Wild dog kills all over the place, and great adrenaline narration! O/\

That was quite a long afternoon S21 route, but I have tried to follow you on your races before! lol

Lucky cheaper restaurant evening... O**

Ja, AW has had gatherings at guesthouses before, I wonder if we were also noisy? :twisted:
Ja, wild dogs hunting is intense and at pace X#X

It was a long drive, longer than expected, especially the middle section of the S21 :O^

The AW gatherings I have been to have been relatively civilized, not certain of others =O: The Moni guest house braai area position is 5m from the GC6 lapa, so it can be a problem

Thanks Roger for checking this out X#X I need to catch up with your TT, but did check some amazing cheetah pics ^Q^ ^Q^

KZN parks have so much potential, it's such a pity O/

Very interesting last episode, Bushy!

The mohawk lions always looka bit silly lol

Lovely to see rhino with horns! ^Q^

The kids have grown into lovely young ladies, well done!

Thanks so much for the report, BC, it is always such a treat! Maybe we can link up his year?

X#X :ty:
