Just to clarify, that was 110 species of Birds, mammals and reptiles in one day, not just birds. \O

It cooked for us last year for some reason.

More lion than I can remember, 3 cheetah, leopard, civet (in the day), plenty hyena, jackal, ostrich babies, 16 odd wild dog, plenty ellies and buffs, etc

I want to add the S90 to my most successful Road.

For a birder this road is alive with raptors and other birdies, yet I have heard of Lion and leopard spotted here.

Add Waterbuck and hyena to the list also.

This is a picture I took of just birds, birds and more birds flying around.

I have had some awesome sightings on the S90 harry and Amoli \O \O

2 male lions fighting over a kill, jackal and vulture fighting over a kill, lioness with cubs, cheetah, but never a hint of a leopard \O (All the usual ellie and buff gang also)

I will always drive it each trip \O

Most successful road?

Difficult question.
As we all know, you can drive a road and see loads. And then the same road produces nothing next time you do the same stretch.

I love seeing Ellies, so for me, one of the best roads is the H4-1 (Skuks/LS road). Always have good ellie sightings along here.

For general game - the H6 is very good.

And in the far South the S118, S119 were very good this past trip.

Just goes to show how everyone's experience is different...we've never had much luck on the H6. ;-)
