A 2014 trip:

H1-1 delivered big time, regarding a stream of regulars...and some not so regular...

Image

On this trip we saw everything ourselves, which is great! These ground hornbill were flying around, so your attention is grabbed!

Image

Image

And a little further, around eastern end of Napi Boulders loop, a tiny baby hyena ran across the road!

Image

Mom was restless, and wandered about!

Image

Another vehicle eventually arrived from ahead, and told us the next culvert pipe, about 50m on, was also occupied! :yes:

Image

One must wonder what effect culvert pipes have had regarding dens for various species over the decades! :twisted:
