We saw this Kori Bustard on the S130 in June. Turned out to be a great road with a cheetah and rhino also seen. :clap:

In June this year we saw 7 birds together, with a further 2 close by (all adults). There must have been a good food source around. This was north of Tshokwane.

A couple of pics taken on my previous trip.
