Thank you to harrys for passing this months task on to me \O \O

I have tried to choose a route not used before - so here goes with some photos
starting back in 2006 :-) :-) on the road between Satara and the S89/S39 turn off. :-)

We saw our first leopard on this road. ^Q^ ^Q^

Also some great elephant sightings \O

October 2012, a pair of Ground Hornbills who tried to eat a small tortoise, picking it up and throughing it on the ground, luckily the skillie got away...

Nice, pooky! O0

This has probably been the consistently best game-viewing tar road year-round in Kruger over the years, in my experience, especially regarding predators!

The Ngotso stream now provides water year-round, so not just the water points on the map! \O

Saw lion, cheetah and leopard on this stretch one drizzly morning coming down from Olifants years back! :shock: :shock: :shock:
