Day 10. Wednesday 28 May 2014. Balule.

Our morning drive was down S89 and then the S39 to Timbavati Picnic Spot for breakfast then back to camp via the S127, H1-4 and S89.

It was a very misty morning with visibility down to a few metres at times. It made for some interesting photo opportunities.

We had Hippos in the Mist.

A Zebra in the mist.

And Bushbuck in the mist.

We couldn't find any Gorillas so we looked for the local equivalent. Their representative (RP) stated that they would only work for peanuts and as we didn't have any, we were **** outta luck!

So we found the Misty Mountain instead.

There were lots of bejeweled spider webs.

And we found where Nan's Nightmares come to life.

Then there were some birds. Brownhooded Kingfisher.

And a Bateleur.

Thanks $\O$ I agree, Kruger is always beautiful but I think it's topped by the Kgalagadi.

Very original, BT...talent can be enhanced through innovation!

That bushbuck took me STRAIGHT back to my first one in Kruger...when I used to get up early!

Fantastic leopard sighting

Patience was rewarded

Those junior hyenas are too cool $O/\$

I get so frustrated trying to take pics on those misty mornings, but you captured some great shots
