Eish, I'm convinced I commented on the previous post. :-? Must be getting old. -O

Great pics of the antics in camp and the Drongo mobbing the Martial is O/\ O/\ O/\

That's the age when the Hyaenas stop being so photogenic and start to look menacing. -O

Loved your report. Only wish I could get there to see what you saw for myself, but this is the next best thing. ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

Great Hyena pic Flutts.. ^Q^ ^Q^
You had a good trip.

I was just thinking how much I would like to see a bushbaby,
yet, it is so true, once I've seen it,
taken all the pictures I want to,
and the excitement and newness wears off,
sure I will feel as if they are making a nuisance of themselves. =O: =O:

Those drongos are a real pain in the backside for some of the bigger birds. -O

Great finale with the spottie. O/\

But it is finished already... :-(

Thanks for sharing with us, Flutts. O0

Thanks so much Flutterby,

really enjoyed once again travelling with you and saw all your awesome sightings and pictures at east virtually ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

Lovely hyaena farewell picture and the bushbabies on your last evening must have also been a fantastic sighting - Although I could have done without the baboon invasion (0)

Until August then 0/*

:-( Trying to catch up and find your TT has ended but love the Martial eagle and the hyenas pics ^Q^

Those bushbabies look so adorable an innocent, I am sure they could not have upset your bin and made that racket ;-)

Will just wait for the next one. I am sure one is due soon \O

We could also have done without the baboon invasion, but I suppose it's those sort of things that make Kruger so exciting! -O See you in August! 0/*
