Being twilight, you got some great shots. Did your neighbours manage to get back into the house?

Re: Grietjie Private Reserve
I didn't know the purple starlings were seasonal? 
Brilliant sighting and shots, Sprotjie! 
What luck...an Eskom lion sighting in your garden.
Only in SA!

Miss last week's entry... Awesome lion sighting (again )
) God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Re: Grietjie Private Reserve
Thanks again, everyone!
I'm smiling from ear to ear, another great sighting this morning.
But, before posting this mornings pics, some from Friday at the river.
Waterbuck crossing towards me...
A Hooded Vulture having a late afternoon drink, before going to roost...
Yesterday evening, while lighting my braai fire, a Dragonfly landed on a branch near me...
On drive this morning, a Red-crested Korhaan that would not stand still...
Up next, another cool sighting...

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

Re: Grietjie Private Reserve
Right, so on drive, rounding a corner...yip, you guessed it...Lions!! This time a coalition of four males, in good condition.
Brotherly love...
Looking good with the back lighting...
Two of them walking away, while I followed...
The last one to get mobile, showing a paw...
From a Lion rich Grietjie, until next time...
