Today’s weather was a complete opposite to what we experienced on previous days of this visit to the Kruger National Park. It was drizzly and windy, with temperatures dropping by more than half from the low to mid-40ºC’s of the previous days to a maximum of 21ºC today. Still, we had some amazing sightings, especially in the early morning. These predator photographs were all taken by Joubert today.

Incredible creatures, incredible photos, deWets! I hope that Joubert was at a great distance, with a long lens, to capture that amazing photo of the crocodile!

Dis min wat mens ‘n krokodil so in die gras sien, gewoonlik is hulle mos maar op die sandbanke. Skote Petoors, Joubert!

Baie dankie, Tannie Frannie. Die Wildtuin is tans so groen en geil, ek dink nie daar is veel kaal kolle grond oor nie!

These two males really had the most beautiful hairdo’s, as if they just stepped out of some fancy unisex salon with bags filled with Hannon products… 😉
