Hi there Ctv4,

We saw Eland (about 20) at the Twee Rivieren waterhole and there are talks of about 3 herds which come and drink together of about 200 at houmoed. The herd which we see at Samevloeiing is about 50 strong.

Morning All,

We might have missed the Aardwolf last night at Twee Rivieren but we did get Leopard (next to the vehicle) and porcupine ,herds of Eland and general game.

Had a walk this morning, prepared myself for a very cold walk and it turned out to be a nice warm morning. We didnt see any predators but had good sightings of two herds of Eland on the walk, plenty general game and so many tracks to talk about that it kept us busy for about 90% of the walk.

Have a great one
