Africa Wild

Thank you Lisbeth, Mel, Bush Brat, Toko, Pumbaa and Flutterby for all your comments

After leaving the Steenbucks it didn't take long and I ran into a big herd of Buffalos. I always love to stand in the middle of a herd and take close portraits of the buffs when they try to check out if you are dangerous for them or not. Here are some of them:

The rest of the loop was not very spectacular but when I came to Shidlayengwenya the long awaited moment was there..I Heard my first Woodland Kingfisher of te year I took it as a good sign and when I was back on the tar rad two Honey Badgers crossed the road in front of me As usual they didn't give me the time to get satisfying pics but I was more than happy that I saw them

your buff portraits are

Honey Badger two of them
and nice Buff's portrait

Honey badger and then even two of them

Gorgeous buffalo portraits - I can spend hours watching their faces and take pictures when appearing in a group they are normally so relaxed

Never tired of looking at beeeg buffalo herds but the Honey badger mom with offspring trotting along is tops

Nice Badgers...

Thank you all for following tis thread, during the next days I hope I can post more regularly

After a good rest in the camp I did the same usual drive in the afternoon. First I visited the Shipandani bridge before I drove the Tropic of C. - loop again. At the bridge I saw some Black Crake, a Croc and this Juvenile Blacksmith Lapwing:




On the way to Tihanganyeni I came across my first Impala babies in the North and also saw a Black-shouldered Kite in the distance:






Maybe because of the heat there were no activities at the waterhole but at the end of the loop I saw a Juvenile Dark Chanting Goshawk in perfect late afternoon light. Here are the first pics of this beautiful raptor but I will post some more in my next post

Great pics of the Goshawk, fc!!!
