Rietvlei Nature Reserve through Greenies' Eyes

[Amoli]

Thanks Flutts..

Lis - once the excitement of sightings start, I never remember what the weather is like
I sat at my Martial sighting near croc bridge at 1 in the afternoon, in December, for 2 hours. I do remember wiping my face some many times, but I can't remember the heat..

superb landscape with the small island

when is misty... is misty
I like too the Hornbill
and the design of the web

Very brave to set out on a game viewing tour in conditions like that.
But the day turned out well and the mist actually created some wonderful photos!

Two friends and I spent a few hours in Rietvlei on Wednesday morning.

African Wattled Lapwing.



This guy was on the side of the road and this is all I could get on wide open on the 150-500mm lens.



Mommy and her 1 month old baby at the restaurant viewing point.









The rest of the photos to follow.

impressive Buffalo and so cute.... cute tiny Rhino

That baby rhino is a cute pie

The reflection of the Lapwing is stunning..

Love the baby rhino and buffalo pics also.

I see they remove any rhino pics from the Rietviei Fb site. Maybe it would prove to be a good thing.

Like the Lapwing, too - puffed up in the cold

[Lisbeth]

Such a cute rhino baby

That little one is adorable! And I particularly like the last shot.
