As I watch the Ostrich, something catches my attention under the kitchen cabinet to my left.
It is a rat who comes to watch from time to time, he too is curious. I prepare myself and shoot him the "portrait" [O]

I don't know the name of this Rat -O-

Charly is lying (still alive at the end of 2017) under the balconies of the cabins, probably waiting for someone to throw something at her, as many people do it, while it's forbidden :twisted:
it is the death of these little animals, who will not even bother to hunt and learn to hunt their offspring 0*\

A Verreaux's Eagle Owl comes to drink and flies off to the dead tree in front. Pretty silhouette.
Then comes an African Wild Cat O/\ and a Black-backed Jackal.

While Liz went to bed, but she saw the cat, she was on the balcony on the room…

I went to Enrico and him friend Larry who sleep in the next cabin, with my bottle of Amarula under my arm =O: <dop> one or two drinks and telling us our observations of the day.
Another nice evening as friends, it changes me to be alone at dusk ... but it's not a problem as I like to stay for hours watching the waterhole... alone or not \O

Very interesting suite again, nana! ^Q^

Yes, what a strange ostrich! :shock: lol

And nice visitors all round! [O]

I sometimes wonder if the animals that are fed cannot also hunt on their own... what do they do if there are no tourists around? -O-
