Africa Wild

Those baby squirrels are sooo cute!!

The smaller stuff can be so rewarding - at least when you don't struggle with photos of one particular species

Very cute baby squirrels. I'll have two of them, please

We're talking maybe Mountain Zebra (and Addo, of course) October 2019. We think, that it might still be a bit nippy at night.
Is it comparable to March / April?

Lovely shots of all the smaller ones, PJL,

especially love the cute squirrels

Wonderful animals and landscapes
Love the cute young ones too

They really are cute Flutts. Strangely only one den site had little ones... I'm not sure what time of year they normally show up

Aha another trip this direction! MZ can be a bit nippy at night any time of the year. We camped in late November once and one night was unusually cold. But generally by October it should be warming up nicely

Thank you Dindingwe... more landscapes coming up

Endless Landscapes

Something I really love about Mountain Zebra are the ever-changing landscapes. Look in any direction and there are incredible views that seem to stretch on forever. The park itself is relatively small, but the views create the impression of immense space. I'm not a particularly great landscape photographer, but here are some of the views we enjoyed during our stay

The views from the camp are fantastic


Sonnenrust 4x4 trail


Doornhoek Dam at sunrise


Moody weather from Rooiplaat


Dappled light along the Wilgerboom River valley


The famous scar on Bankberg - in 1974 a 22 ton rock rumbled down the mountain causing a 250m long scar that is still visible today


Juriesdam 4x4 trail


Sunset colours accompanied by the distant roar of lions

Lovely!! And so many different landscapes.

Beautiful scenery

Are there no trees in MZNP?

Varied scenery!

And what a scar!

Couldn't agree more about the beautiful landscapes! And with some fluffy sheep cloud it's even better.
I also love when the sun breaks through an almost covered sky in the late afternoon. Awesome colours
appear in the mountains (and beyond).
