Africa Wild

It is quite a shock to the system to be by the river after the desert!

At the Letaba High Bridge we spotted something very rare indeed!


RP: "Aha! Can you see what THAT is there at the puddle? "

Frew: "Is this one of your stupid quizzes again? "

BL: "There is nothing. NOTHING!!" (He is normally aggressive by this time of day, as one may remember from previous trips...)

DW: "A Shwan!'

It was a Kori bustard drinking/dreaming...never seen that!



At this time of the year the algae makes a beautiful colour show!

And there were hordes of fish! I love it!



These are mostly Blue Kurper, Tilapia Mossambicus, and they were busy nesting...making many depressions in the sand!



BL: "Nonshenshe! There is NO such thing! "

RP: "We have this conversation every year. I promise you they are neshting...nesting... "

BL: "You LIE!"

RP: "Look at the pretty colours! "

And then a bit further there is a huge grass vlei, and it was full of ungulates and pachyderms!


Dw: "Full of what??? "

Interesting pictures from the water at the bridge

A Kori Bustard drinking.. bad pic

Thanks, Lis!

Ja, that is what it was doing!

Same colours every year!

What lovely conversations you have!

Brilliant river shots, Richprins

Good spot of the Kori drinking, especially after how many teas and great pic showing all the fish
