Hey B.C. It is great to have you on board.

Pilanesberg just gets better and better for us. Just wait until you see our next trip which will follow very soon.

Thanks for the lovely comments.

DAY FOUR - 15 SEPTEMBER 2016.

Today was going to be our last day as we had to be out of the resort by 10:00 and I still some assignments to complete.

Image

Our second cheetah sighting was of Rains two sons who had by now left her and formed a coalition. Also very far away and in the shade of a tree. Very heavily cropped.

Image

Very quite sightings wise today so here is a photo of a giraffe.

Image

And ho hum a waterbuck.

Image

Finally for today a rock monitor.

Image

That was it for the day.

After much deliberation we decided to get up early tomorrow and pop in for an early morning drive.

Little did we know what a fantastic that decision was to be.

More cheetah, that's really O:V

I also like the gabar shot - nice light goes with it \O

And the rock monitor ^Q^ Stuff I don't often see, so I consider it special :-)
