Pleasure, nana!
Elephants all over the place, virtually all breeding herds, and some fishy behaviour...

De Laporte windmill operational but struggling to supply enough, it seems.
Manzimahle dam looks ok, might make it.
Jones dam almost empty!
Notice how the dam level has actually fallen between the morning and evening view!
There is a big problem in this area, because:
Manzimhlope Windmill, inoperative for a long time now.
Air Force Dam Dry/broken
Air Force Windmill inoperative.
Vutomi Dam dry/broken.
Nwatindlopfu Windmill inoperative.
Ripape stream drier than normal...we saw some attempted elephant holes that they gave up on...
Anyway, Sand River flowing very nicely!

Ja, nana...it is probably mud already, and will be gone in a few days, effectively.
If you look carefully you can see the normal dying cluster of big barbel fish on the left!
