Gorgeous Browmie pics :clap:

Lions and more but majestic :thumbs_up:

and a beautiful shrew mouse :dance:

and we had the same show at CQ :big_eyes:

The vultures were quite regular for some time at least. We saw them every time we passed.
Well, every time we passed around midday that is. They were always gone at night and not
yet present in the mornings. But it definitely was a great spectacle - never seen that before.

Hi Lionspoon

I think your arty photos of the vultures are great :thumbs_up:

But my favourite is the fullframe photo of that magnificent king who wandered out of the bushes for you :clap:

Plus I really love seeing what you saw on the other side of the Nossob cam

Just catching up here again, Lionspoon - and what can I say! Brownie, leopard, AWC, male lion and more brownies, and many birdies all from one spot! :big_eyes:

Grootkolk is now definitely on my list for our next KTP encounter... Now I just need to get time to go, and availability at Grootkolk... :slap:

The latter is a real pain in the backside... For our next trip we could get only a single night so far. :roll:

Hoping for some cancellations though. :whistle:

Which night did you get? I look every morning :cry:

Enjoying your TR :thumbs_up:
