Ah, the dassie again 8)

Lovely pics, quite some tusker there :big_eyes: but my favourites have to be your bokkie pictures. Your bushbuck is really beautiful and Klipspringer are among my top favourites :thumbs_up:

Fantastic.

:popcorn:

Hi Val,
How super to have had the meet. :thumbs_up:

Wonderful :cam: love all .... the Klippies are really such cute little bokkies. :dance:

Can just image how you feel, when you can't enter the Park the same time as when the camps gates open. :(

Looking forward to your Impie pics once the babies arrive. :dance: :dance:


Scouring the Impie herds for our first baba!! :thumbs_up:

After our bacon sarnie had been digested, we took a leisurely drive up to the causeway on the H14.......very little about in the heat, but we did see two lovely secretary birds!!!

One of them seems to have four legs!!! :lol:

Hey Val, I cought up after we too had bad internet.....

Love your daily trippies! Nice to meet mites and old friends like Desmond Dassie!

And how lucky with the secretary birds!

40min waiting for a nasty ellie, thats long! But I think Val is still on top with the ellies scoring 0!
