Never got to see the EV :-(

I have subscribed to a rare bird sighting notification email group.
Seems there have been no reported sightings of the EV for a few weeks now -O-

Vultures travel over huge distances ..It will pitch up ..seems to favour the Central Letaba / Olifants area ..With the fuel price and looming retirement I will only be able to get to Kruger once every 18 months or so ..So maybe they will be a pair by then when we spend Nov at Shingwedzi 2019..ah its getting better ..only 13 months to go O:V O:V O:V O:V

I seem to recall the last sighting on this email group was on the S28 (south of Lower Sabie)
Drove this road a few times but no luck.

Also spent some time in the Olifants area.

Anyhow - hopefully the EV will still be around next March and I will get to see it then O**
