Thank you all for the warm welcome! Very impressive Rhino pic PRWIN \O
Two more pics from this beautiful park. The Pin-tailed Whyday did his best to create a great show for the female, unfortunately she wasn't as impressed as I was :O^

One of my favourite parks.

Witnessed this amazing event recently and managed to capture the whole experience as it happened before me.

Thanks for all the replies - This was truly a 'Once in a Lifetime' sighting.

We were driving along the Sontuli loop in the iMfolozi Game Reserve on Sunday 23rd September (12H30) when I spotted 3 Buffalo bulls on the opposite river bank. All of a sudden a lone Lioness appeared out of the reeds -

Image

She was interested in the Buffalo (who had not seen her) and went into stalk mode.

She crossed the river and the chase was on -

Image

All hell then broke loose - One on the Buffalo turned and headed into the water -

Image

The chase continued and she positioned herself for the kill -

Image

I could not believe that this epic scene was unfolding before me - The bleating of the Buffalo bull will stay with me forever...............

More to follow....
