Would not mind:
Black Mamba
Sable
Eland(without the use of binoculars)

Thanks for the link that was lazy of me wasn't it!

Threedogs, a very good investment is to get a Robert Bird Guide. I've a KNP specific one. It wasn't very expensive and it comes in very handy. It's pocket size so it doens't take up a lot of space. :http://www.amazon.co.uk/Roberts-Bird-Guide-National-Adjacent/dp/1770096388

Slightly larger, but also worth the investment

I'll add another to the wish list:

Striped Polecat.

Think it'll be a bit a stretch to see, but we can dream can't we.

List of all the things I would like to find and photograph:

Pel's fishing owl
A close up picture of a pygmy kingfisher
An Aardfark (think thats how you spell it)

(never seen a Pel's fishing owl, or an Aardfark)

What I would dearly like to see again (have not seen for a decade or more)

Black Rhino
Eland
Suni (just in case you thought it was just the big stuff I was after....)

For a long time the Sable Antelope were also m.i.a, but over the past few years I have had some good sightings.

I hope to one day see Sable again when they introduce it back into KNP. Also a Pels Fishing Owl and Narina Trogon

Shame W@H,

As long as your head is you know where, you may as well dream on, buddy.

Listen .. you saw frogs with your head in the clouds .. so anything is possible

Hi Wild@Heart,

I've seen all three of those that you want to see. Not to brag or anything.

Wild@Heart, you post as if you know that Sable is no longer found in KNP! I was under the imppression that they are still to be found, having seen one at the waterhole just North of Thsokwane about 2 years back.

All this 'lovely' spreadsheet work is making me long for that sunset in KNP, the smell of the braai fire and the taste of a cold beer!

Wild@heart knows perfectly well there are still Sable in Kruger.
They are regularly seen at the Kruger Tablets, as well as many other places.

My wishlist:
Eland
Pangolin
African Wild Cat
Caracal
Civet
Aarvark
Pangolin
Narina Trogon
Orange Winged Pytilia.

Enough sables in the park - seen 2 of them on the H1-3 in March these year and there were a few seen these days in Voortrekker road...
