Hyena and cheetah O:V You need to be faster on the draw BT --00--

Barbel is one of the few species which can fill their swim bladder by gulping air, (most swim bladders are internally gas filled if that makes sense) but they are also obligatory air breathers and sometimes do this to scoop up insects. Cool sighting ^Q^ ^Q^

Love the zebra cheesy =O: =O: =O:

The Northern streams are pollution-free, Tzendze system being a great example. ;-)

Good to see cheetah still there! \O

Thanks STF!

Thanks for the Barbel info BC.

The Hyaena/Cheetah shots would have been rubbish even if I'd been ready!

Lots of Kori's around the area but mostly too far away for pics.

There were Tsessebe there but not in good light so I didn't take any pics of them. ^0^
