Just another day in the Kruger: 23 September 2013

Never a day passes in the Kruger National Park that is not full of surprises.

We will be heading back home to Pretoria tomorrow, but today we had great sightings of huge elephant and buffalo herds, jackals, a massive eland bull, several grysbok and even an albino impala.

The highlight of the day was seeing a young male lion walking casually past a mixed herd of elephant and buffalo on the Dzundwini loop-road near Punda Maria – that’s three of the “Big-5” in the same spot! Unfortunately I could only manage a shot of the lion and elephant in the same frame.

    Thanks for following a quiet WoollyMuses, over the past two weeks, at least. I had hoped to post regularly while in Kruger. Now Perth..home at week’s end. Hope bring some images soon. Would have doubted so,e I,ages were as easily produced, but for having experienced SA/Kruger myself. A wonderful holiday destination.

    Great shot Mate… but does the lion have a collar on?? I took a photo of one in the park only to discover when I got home it had a radio collar round its neck…
