Re: Our Pilanesberg Adventures
I've seen a few complaints about the Pilanesberg Centre but the service and food were great!
Another two first's ...Cinnamon Breasted Bunting....
.... and a Red-winged Starling.
A Black-throated Canary.
Ash asked our waitress when they had last seen lions around the Centre and she said they'd seen lions that morning about 5 mins away!! So, after paying we headed in the direction she told us and we found them!! There were two males and two females but unfortunately it was very hard to see them in the long grass and these are just proof pics! 
It wasn't a great sighting but Ash was happy that we'd now seen two of the Big 5!

Lions! 
And imagine how disgusting the guineafowl would be if they didn't have the colours?
