Skybed 2 the 2nd in charge of the Skybeds Pride that operates mainly in Manyeleti and Timbavati adjacent to Kruger but the Orpen area is the Eastern Boundary of their vast territory and they cause mayhem when they arrive and not much sleep is had at Maroela, Orpen and Tamboti Camps. Taken at High ISO just before sunrise..How I miss my last camera that could handle low light in its stride..big mistake getting the D800..Definitely going to rectify that during the coming year
