The next day, Union End, 5 Lions, a Bateleur in the nest and the local Barn Owl, who will return to the waterhole at night accompanied by a boyfriend/girlfriend, wow one of my favorite birds.... one of my loves
I finally found Meerkats, they seem to have disappeared from the park
Temminck's Coursers, Dusky Lark, Ant-Eating Chat and lots of raptors

Was the puffie in your unit?
Lots of lovely birdies and nice lion sighting.

Wow, nana, never a boring pic!
The ant termite thing is an ongoing fight, maybe put it up under "interesting animal behaviour" and we can get an expert?
Can't get over how green the desert is!
Never seen an owl drink...can't they go without water or something?
Love the selfie!

will do... I'm interesting to know this behaviour
Owls drink... maybe not a lot, I often saw them at the waterhole
just after big rains all become green... and is so nice

No 3 is actually quite a good unit... We like to stay there as too. Well, at least we did so far, but with the new tenant, we might want to reconsider
Must make sure I'll put a bowl on the ground for the mongooses next time. Love them to bits and usually they are off way too quickly when they
forage around the unit.
Excellent bird sightings!!!

(particularly the Temmincks'

) And the barn owl... well, I think it's enjoying and not commenting any further, hey?

, right is a good unit, maybe the nearest from the waterhole... and the passage for Lions
thes little mongooses come every day... one was very interested by snakes

and another risked its life... a bit later
then... no commenting
