A soggy day in the Satara area today, but still the Kruger National Park dished up the magic – from terrapins and frogs on the wet roads to different birds feasting on them and emerging termites, to every member of the famed Big Five!

The rain is very, very welcome and much needed. Unfortunately our campsite’s a little “damp” as a result…

Hope you all stay warm and dry. At least you have fantastic sightings to warm the heart, and the knowledge that the rain is so needed.

We didn’t mind the rain at all, and neither the loadshedding that has SA, including Satara, firmly at ransom again.

Self was ons nog nie verder Noord as Letaba op hierdie besoek nie, maar as ek hierdie wolke so kyk glo ek dit reën so regdeur die Laeveld.

You really have some rain I can see. It’s more like a monsoon! Which it’s good and promotes growth and activate dormant eggs and many seeds too. It is fascinating wildlife at their best! Thanks, D. 🙂

Brilliant to see that the rain has arrived.
I love your impala and lioness photo, Dries. I suspect a little too close for comfort for the impala though.

The lions were intent on having impala for breakfast, that’s for sure!

Wonderful leopard in a tree! At Lower Sabie, we only got to see the ears of some lions and a leopard’s impala hanging in a tree just outside the camp!
Ground Hornbills are always awesome to see.
There is always something wonderful to experience in Kruger!
