RP, BT, Sprocks, harrys - this was amazing to find so many doggies

We were not even the first out of camp. Gates opened at 4.30am and we left camp at about 5.00 having to pack for our long drive to Pundaa. This is what we found when we got there
and on the right side of the road, right where the turn off to the Nwamatsatsa waterhole is.

I love Kruger in the summer. I love the 4.30am start to the day and the call of the Woodlands kingfisher. The colourful Carmine and Europena Bee-Eaters and the Yellow Billed Kites. We spent a lot of time phtographing these birds and here are a few photos
The European Roller(Ball)
