Thanks Pumbaa. I was very happy with how those turned out. During our last trip we saw more Waterbuck than ever before.

Down to the final four days.....

We had a very unexpected sighting on the Lower Sabie Bridge a few years ago. I thought I would share that tonight.....

We sat on the bridge for several minutes while the otter devoured his lunch. It certainly wasn't the type of sighting I had thought about before, but was one of the most special I have experienced. I later spoke to Martie at LS who said in her 5 years as a guide at the camp she had only seen an otter once.

Now a few general shots

Hope you all have a great day!

Till tomorrow......

Daron

Haha. I hadn't thought about it that way, but you are right. Less than one hand now....

Daron!

Thanks for your kind words earlier...I wouldn't mind being kidnapped to Kruger with my camera (especially if my park and accomodation fees will be paid for :wink:

)

You must be excited with so few days left before your trip. We will be in the bush around the same time with me leaving for KTP on Saturday morning very early.

Enjoy it and I will be checking back on this TR when you are back home and posting some images from your trip.
:mrgreen:

The Otter was indeed a very special sighting Tedredrum! We haven't seen one in the Park yet. :clap:

Your pictures of the general game are superb, especially those cute little Squirrels! :dance:

Here is a question Tetredrum...
How long does it take for a Heksie to wake up?
Looks like 7 whole pages long hey :slap:

Now why didn't I tune in earlier man... I really did enjoy all your kiekies and can't wait till our congregate meet :tongue:

So not only is porridge and SO coming to Satara on 27 November but also you :twisted:

We are having a first forum birthday at Satara in the history of the forum :thumbs_up:

I have calculated that we should meet each other at 11:30 which would be enough time for you guys from Shing :thumbs_up:

Now I would love to know which birdhide is on page 2? :hmz:

And your leppie kiekies are superb :clap:

Golden kitties are always a top priority for me and the one chowing on the carcass also makes me very :mrgreen:

Lovely birdy kiekies! like the woodpecker and close up of the starling :thumbs_up:

REally enjoying your TR :popcorn:
