An eventful trip... to Kgalagadi *

Vultures


At Cubitje Quap I also found a lot of Vultures… and 3 or 4 Secretaries Birds and it was not easy to share with Gnus. Always impressive to see these big scavengers

Here some White-backed Vulture/Vautour africain



Most of them are nesting, near Urikaruus, almost all the trees are occupied

[nan]

In (on) the dune and a lot in a close tree, near Kij Kij

[nan]

At Kij Kij, wow the biggest Vulture, Lappet-faced Vulture/Vautour oricou, made its show

the Ostich in the back seems to be... tiny



it has a drink, chase a Crow or two, then ran several meters and took off
not easy for a so heavy bird

[nan]

At Urikaruus, this Gnu, came to drink and took the opportunity to do a "makeup" ... the result is convincing ......







done

[nan]

The newborns have arrived

so cute little things

[nan]

They are cute, the two little ones who discover themselves

[nan]

the fire truck... at Grootkolk



maybe better use these ones -O

[nan]

the waterhole at Grootkolk didn't work very well, so Andres decide to have a look

armed with a brush
to push away... the predators... a herd of Gnus -O

[nan]

this picture need explanation

when I'm out, I put my picnic in a smal plastic bag, then the reliefs
at home, yes at home I empty the little/tiny fridge and normaly put asap inside the dustbin, this time no why
... and a moment later I heard noise... and saw the small bag disappear under the gaz stove, slowly but surely
when Eric comes, we looked under the stove and a mouse, quite big mouse was eating the egg's shells
naughty anne-marie, is not allow to feed animals in the park

sorry not in focus... but -O

Cute little bokkies! Awww...

Those mice at Grootkolk always came by to prey on some morsels...
Even the sociable weavers and a familar chat. They always sat on the
ground when we were eating. The weavers even hopped onto our table.
SO was not amused.
