We spent most of today searching for wildlife along the few pools spread along the mostly dry Shingwedzi River to the southeast of camp, and the sightings were thrilling!

Wonderful. Thank you.
I am glad you enjoyed the tour, Lakshmi!
Love that cheetah shot!
It was a wonderful encounter, Kathy – even more so as just minutes before I was recalling to Hannes and his fiance how we’d had a brilliant cheetah sighting in that area years ago!
Even in times of dire drought, the KNP seldom fails to deliver.
And it is wonderful to see the animals cope with the harshness of the dry season and even exploit the conditions to their advantage, like the predators do!
Ag hoe wonderlik. Dankie Dries dat ons saam kan ervaar. Ek mis wildtuin besoeke so vreeslik.
Baie dankie dat jy sama kom toer het, Erna!
thanks, Dries, amazing diversity, that lower Shingwedzi, great sightings and images!
The sparsity of water here at the end of the dry season meant some thrilling sightings, Joep, and so nice that there are much fewer visitors and vehicles jostling for position!
