Alarm Clock

Good day!
Thank you again for all your supportive comments. It is nice to drive around and take pictures knowing that there are people looking at them and, above everything, appreciate them.
There is a tree next to the Camp fence, and every morning (before dawn) these Egyptian gees come here to greet the new day. Even if one does not want to wake up early, one will… promise you. The greeting takes about ½ hour, till the Sun rise. One doesn’t need an alarm clock. It is already included in the accommodation price.

It is nice, quiet and hot in the park. Summer is coming. Leaves are shyly coming out. .

Someone asked for a picture of chalet no: 4. Here it is, followed by the picture of the neighbor.

Chalet ....

 

...and the neighbor

 

Yesterday I went to Matjulu Dam and got couple of pictures of this baboons’ meal.

Looks very tasty

 

I did my usual rounds, with usual animals:

I am Angry

They seem to be good friends.

Mother and ...

 

... Children

 

My Mom is here

This was at H3. We could not work out who is the owner. Could you ?

This Morning

 

But this morning Hyenas were out there and… sorry… I could not resist!

… till tomorrow, regards OB

    Thank you for the picture of the Chalet No 4, I see it’s right at the Camp Kitchen.  I wonder if that will not be a bit noisy.  Can I ask you to take some more just to get a better picture of it. 
    Love your articles and photo’s, nice to experience it with you.

    love it, when we were in Malalane begining of August for 5 days we were right by the fence and every morning the geese woke us in the dark till you had to get up and make coffee. Thankyou for all your super reports

    Hi there!

    Great pics again – making me just more excited about our upcoming weekend.!! Love the “alarm-clock” – they will just replace the hadedas nesting in the tree next to our bedroom window.
    The hyenas are just like dogs – got to love the last one putting on the totally innoccent look!

    Thanks again for sharing.
