There really were a lot of grey hornbills
I have notices that there is often a yearly dominating bird in summer, which is very strange

I have had a year with European rollers, one with red-backed shrikes, one with red hornbills etc. etc.
There was a lot of European Rollers too

I don't like them

25 February 21 - Day 8:
Today we moved to Letaba......
Our last goodbye to our wonderful hut
Famous Baobab near Mopani
Then about 20 km from Letaba we saw a car parked next to the road

....as we approached my wife pointed to something in the long grass.......I looked through my lense and there was a ROAN all by it selve

We arrived at Letaba just after 13:00 and we booked in.....but our first hut had some issues

so we got upgraded to another hut, which was very cool
After a bit of a rest I went for a afternoon drive.....I could not make up my mind where to go so I just drove around
Little Steenbok
Letaba river from the bridge
Lone Bluewildebeast bull
Young Giraffe
Maybe soon I will have some action.....

Strange to see a roan all alone like that
