The hides at Marievale Bird Sanctuary don’t only provide excellent opportunities for bird-watching, they are also a window into the lives of many other, often smaller, creatures.

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”.

Quite a bit smaller than my sunbathing alligator. 🙂
And far less intimidating! 😀
You sound busy!
Welcome here Susie!
Getting out into South Africa’s wild places is the best kind of busy 😉
Love this.
