blog design in progress.....


What a journey it has been. I have seen a lot, experienced more, and continue in the search for the ultimate: to be able to perceive and understand what is around us in Nature, to learn from the calmness and revitalisation one feels when in a beautiful place; or watch something that drives your soul, such as a bird. The continual ebb and flow of nature reveals no prejudice. I think we all need to observe a bird, to get some humility into humanity.

Our second day in Kruger started off with a wake-up at 5.00 am - it was extremely cold in an open vehicle on drive, but the beautiful sunrise made up for it! Our day's viewing was great yet again - even though no wild dogs were found - we saw a large breeding herd of buffalo, lots of elephants, some rhino, lots of giraffe, a big male lion in a separate sighting to the lioness below! We have seen some great birds - White-headed Vulture, Pearl-spotted Owlet, Baleleurs, Martial Eagle, Goshawks to name a few! That Sandgrouse could get on the list to draw?

Early morning in the Kruger! Wish you were here!
