Re: BT on the trail of the mythical Pangolin
Day 6. Friday 22 May 2014. Shingwedzi.
Another beautiful day! We drove the Red Rocks road this morning. I was disappointed to find that the Red Rocks Waterhole was not in use - has it been closed down or is it broken?
We started at the southern end so that we could get to Red Rocks while the light was still good.
I took a series of pictures and combined them into a panorama.
As usual, it was a bit a yawn driving this road and there was no Leopard to be seen this time.
We did get to see a stunning Spotted Joker Butterfly.
At Tshange the view was just as impressive as ever.
And I found some bugs while we had coffee.
A Striped Skink was playing hide-and-seek.
And a Dragonfly posed patiently for some extreme closeups.
Further down the road, a tranquil scene at Silverfish Dam.
And a small Water Monitor was sunbathing on the bridge.
These Termites were busy getting ready for an early visit by St. Nick.

Re: BT on the trail of the mythical Pangolin
Redrocks windmill may or may not be closed...there is a map and discussion on the "artificial waterpoints" thread...maybe too close to the road to dynamite? 
Will look in October!
Nice to see things so green at Tshange!!

I hope they haven't closed it, it's well positioned for photography.Richprins wrote:Redrocks windmill may or may not be closed...there is a map and discussion on the "artificial waterpoints" thread...maybe too close to the road to dynamite?

Re: BT on the trail of the mythical Pangolin
Oops, I missed a few pictures from my last installment. 
A Fish Eagle at the Redrocks causeway.
Doublebanded Sandgrouse in beautiful light.
A Spurfowl chick.
And a young Burchell's Coucal - note the eye colour!
