Lis has summed it up perfectly...a splendid dream!
The foxies are a sublime way to end!
Thank you so much for the wonderful pictures and words, Ex!

Thank you for so many extraordinary sightings and pix
I think especially on the Lizard Buzzard, not common at all in the park
and the Grey Hornbill
Lot of Cheetahs for my great pleasure, the 3 Muskateers and so many others
Love the baby Ratel and Suricate and Plover
love the Barnie, my prefered Owl, the Gecko, barking of course, Dikkop, Lanner's dust bathing.
Got a Mantid too, at Grootkolk... so tiny... like was the pic as well
your macro, not my prefered , are fantastic… well done
Thank you for your patience to stay a little bit than usual at a sighting for building several story... like the Mole Snake preparing/rebuilding its hole/nest
Oups forget the "one eye", my old friends for several travels now
a real regal

Mel - not Charlie, was on the Nossob side before KijKij. Wishing you GREAT sightings on your current trip
Flutts, RP, and Pumbaa - as always, your selfless time taken to appreciate others is duly noted
Sis - eloquent words of praise from an equally eloquent lady
Klipspringer - SO happy you're an insect-lover-nerd
nan - so sorry to read of your health problems -(I even went on-line a week ago to research a product, Inogen One, a portable oxygen system to see if it may be helpful, but the cost was USA $2000+) Any possibilities in that area?
I appreciate your time and much effort in replying to my TT, and take every word to heart.
all.

Re: Heartstring Moments - Springtime in the Kalahari 2018
We probably won't see Charlie again… Eric says he saw a Cape fox in very poor condition, so he reckons Charlie passed away.
On a positive note though: someone inherited her space at Uri. We had a Cape fox around most nights, so we just called her
Charlie Fox the Second

Sorry for Charlie fox the 1st whom I knew even if not intimately. Welcome to Charlie fox the Second (didn't you just say somewhere that you have a lively imagination )Mel wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 4:10 pm We probably won't see Charlie again… Eric says he saw a Cape fox in very poor condition, so he reckons Charlie passed away.

Yeah, but that's down to pictures popping up in my head, not words

it's different
Is it the offspring that has taken the place of CF the 1st or is it unknown?
