Yes, shame the Genet stay away and it was too dark to have a picture... I had the camera ready...and one more hand will be fine to hold the torch

thank you Flutts

These Abdim's are crazy...where do they come from, Okavango?
Weird place this!

You must give those idiots on the 4x4 thread some advice!

I like the wet eagles!

I think like you, the Abdim's came from the North... maybe Okavango
A place where all can arrive each time it's so different
4x4 need a convoy... and 2x4 need to stay at Twee Rivieren
me too love those poor eagles... they can't annoy the smaller ones

thank you Rich

Fantastic sighting of the Abdim's Storks

Nan have you been to the Okavango? I would love to go on my wish list

Naughty Genet not to return you went to all the trouble with the camera trap for it!

Lovely selection of birds - Some wet too

Yes I went to Okavango but no Abdim's , not even one
The Genet was seen and photographied at the Unit ... can't remember
maybe with enough hands

but noted on my "confirmation letter"

thank you

The Kgalagadi is always good for a surprise or two
So many Abdims... incredible! But then again, you often find birds
that are not supposed to be there. In this case it's the numbers of a
species that is totally amazing.

you are so right Mel

and still more... new one

lot of kills

A Black-shouldered Kite is mistreating and eating an animal, hairy with a long hairy tail it too
I don't know which animal it is! Help please, could you recognize it



full mouth

a paw

the tail

Suddenly, what I think could be a Tawny, plunge on a prey to the ground
I follow him through my objective, it's a juv. Bateleur Eagle and the prey could be a squirrel
When at last I can see it, it is impossible for me to identify it, it has already shredded it
not time to share with another





Tonight again, it's impossible to make a braai, I eat a tin of tuna mayonnaise bought in the shop, bof must eat something
