At the camp there are Swifts-Swallows-Martins, at least two different kinds. Impossible to identify, for me
At midnight a Steenbok is taken by the camera trap.

I think it's a Barn Swallow
and then cats will come again, plus some dear to my heart... at last

Lovely mongoose and a sweet little mouse (when I don't see the tail

).
It is difficult enough to catch a swallow not to talk about IDing it
Temminck's Courser must be another rarity in KTP

Brilliant, nana, and I like your interest in the small stuff!
Springboks look like our rugby team!
Next thing we'll have cormorants in the desert!
Always funny how orange those mongooses are compared to ours here..
Love the bird in quasi-camouflage!

small stuff is part of the wild too
Springboks... too young it's seems to me
Cormorants... and maybe Pélicans, why not, for next time
maybe the sun change the color of Mongooses
