We’re still in the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, though we’ve moved camp from Hilltop Camp in the Hluhluwe section to Mpila Camp in the Imfolozi section. It was a very hot day today – the high of 36°C belying the season we find ourselves in – and animals were congregating along the rivers and besides the pans from very early on.

Nou verlang ek sommer na Natal en sy pragtige parke!
Dis hoekom ons nie hier kan wegbly nie, Aletta!
Ek kan dit glo!
Ek hou van die bobbejaan foto’s vandag … daar’s altyd ‘n koddige uitdrukking op daardie gesigte! En natuurlik ‘n pragtige naby foto van die renoster hier teen die einde.
Baie dankie, Corna!
Joubert se foto van die lekkerbekkige rooibok is so oulik!
Baie dankie, Tannie Frannie. Dit was n unieke perspektief wat Joubert goed benut het.
Excellent photos, guys! Thank you! 🙂
Thanks a lot, H.J!
Having two excellent photographers is such a bonus–two sets of eyes to see things, two sets of hands to hold cameras capturing different moments and activities. Sorry about the heat. We’re having a lovely cool day today, although next week temperatures will go up again. But we got rain last night, a huge blessing.
Thank you very much, Janet. Being able to share this love for nature and photographing it with Joubert is a real blessing – just like rain is!
We too have endured similar heat today, which leaves us feeling pap by the evening. Mind you, with all these exciting sightings, you are probably all feeling very buoyed up still. Lekker slaap.
Nothing beats an ice cream while you’re driving around the game reserve, hey Anne?
