We’ve had another wonderful day exploring the beautiful surroundings of Hilltop Rest Camp here in the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, marveling at creatures big and small along the way.

Ek is altyd so bly om renoster foto’s te sien … dankie vir die mooies wat jy hier deel.
Hluhluwe-Imfolozi was n eeu jaar gelede die plek wat ons renosters gered het van uitwissing. Ek hoop nie dis weer nodig nie.
Each photo more magical than the next…and that spider..Wow!
You are very kind, Lori. Thank you!
Ek het nog nooit so ‘n mooi spinnekop gesien nie! Pragtige foto’s van jou en Joubert!
Die spinnekop se kleure en die vorm daarvan was iets baie besonders!
I have never seen a spider like that one. The Red-billed Oxpecker is rare to to me too. Thanks, D. and Joubert. 🙂
I’m going to have to research that spider, H.J, as it was a new species for me as well! Always something new to discover and learn when you study nature.
First of all I had to readjust my thinking from “No, it’s not autumn yet” to “Duh, on the other side of the hemisphere.” 🙂 After that I could just enjoy the photos, especially the one of the colorful spider that appears to have superhero wings and the softness of that monkeys fur. 🙂
I can’t say that I am exactly thrilled at autumn’s arrival at our end, but aside from the sun rising later and setting earlier not much else to give its presence away at the moment – we still reached 33C today!
Dis n meneer samango monkey. Baie trots op sy voorkoms om dames te beindruk.
Hy is wraggies baie indrukwekkend!
Mens kan sien hy is baie, baie trots op homself en manhaftig ook.
This is a holiday you will all remember for a long time. I like your ‘beautifully adorned’ spider.
Thank you very much, Anne. Every chance we get to visit this special park is a treasure!
