Wonderful sightings and nice pix!
Hi Mel. So nice to have you on board. A visit to the Park is the only way I can detox.

Cute springbok.

And always nice to see lions!
There have been a lot of sightings of reedbuck lately...people are saying that there isn't much grazing left on the mountains so they are moving down to the plains where they are more easily seen.

A brand new springbok
Lovely late afternoon light on the dam.
I tried to find a place outside the park for December, but nothing to do

Or they did not answer or were too expensive, so we have dropped the idea

Thats very interesting Flutterby. Heinrich also says that about why there are so many leopard sightings lately. There is no more game higher up and they have all come down to the lower plains.

They way our rugby Springboks are playing at the moment they need all the help they can get.
So sorry to hear that you could not get accomodation. Keep trying maybe a cancellation comes up. Good luck.
