A month of monochrome memories: Proud Hartebeest

Standing tall and proud, a red hartebeest surveys the Rietvlei Nature Reserve for hidden predators.

Our end-of-year 2015 holidays were absolutely packed to the brim. Apart from our ten-day visit to the Kruger National Park (read more about our time at Lower Sabie, Olifants and Shingwedzi in December), we also made day trips to five other reserves, and will be sharing photos from those (except Suikerbosrand, which we introduced in a post all of its own) daily through the month of February, in a series we call “a month of monochrome memories”.

        Aaa ek sien! Ek het op Hennosrivier skool gehou en oorkant die hoofweg(van die skool af) was n proefplaas wat hartebeeste aangehou het om die vliëe wat hul eiers in skape se oë lê te bestudeer en teen middel te ontwikkel. Vliëe was baie lief vir hartebeeste dis hoekom hul dit aangehou het.(was n veeartsenynavorsing plek gewees)

        Dis nou baie interresant, Ineke! Die hartbeeste, blesbokke en wildebeeste loop erg deur onder die botvliee, ek wonder wat het van daardie navorsing geword…
