Departure at about 9h, we go south to Houmoed then go north up to Kamqua. It's pretty quiet, but we still find some interesting birds, Suricatess and Lions.
We meet en route Gatita (Tina c/o Wild forum)
At the exit of our private road a Pale chanting Goshawk is doing the circulation.
Later a Ground Squirrel hides behind its picking.
A Black-shouldered Kite devours his prey.
PCG doing circulation

At the Alouettes Hill, we find a Stark's Lark. Then a Purple Roller and flowers " Adenium (Adenium oleifolium)".
Short stop at Auchterlonie I try to have a picture of KK, it is distorted by the heat, it is difficult to distinguish the cabins, and yet they are there.

The young Martial Eagle is still in the same place, but on a low branch.
An Ostrich appears on the fringe of the dunes, on the horizon.
One (BEF) Bat-ear Fox that we just have time to see run away

Ostrich on the horizon
We go back, another Ostrich takes, its sand and dust bath in the middle of the road ... amazing
