Friday 4 December 2015 - Letaba -> Ingwenya Lodge.
On the long journey south we didn't encounter anything worth mentioning until we got to Satara. In the area in front of the restaurant I spotted a dancing butterfly.
And a Brownheaded Parrot.
Suitably refreshed by a M&B breakfast we continued southwards.
A few Kms down the road we came upon a solo Lioness.
And another few Kms further on, a small pride. Two Lionesses looked on as a male gorged himself on a baby Elephant.
After booking into Ingwenya, I took a shortened afternoon drive - the security guard asked me where my SO was so I told him that I''d killed her and the body was in the back, I asked if there were any Lions in the area - he looked at me then checked through the back window just to make sure I wasn't serious.
There's much more to see in the south!
Greenbacked Heron.
A Wartlet.
Magpie Shrike.

Brown Snake Eagle.
Lappetfaced Vulture.
Unmentionables.
Energetic newbies.
The newbies exuberance was contagious.
And to end the day, a strange beast in the clouds.

Thanks for that wasp info...
Will send your pic on to Lowvelder just in case, as you seem to be ambivalent?

I only identified the kill as an Ele when I was processing the pictures - very unusual in the Kruger!
Hahahah! Who is that hack-rag's main competition? Is it the Kruger Times? Perhaps I should let them have exclusive use of my pictures I shall have to consider that

Thanks Lis! I was also quite pleased with the Butterfly in-flight pictures. Insects in flight are always difficult!Lisbeth wrote:ALL your photos are splendid , but catching a butterfly dancing around is for the few
