Memories of Marloth and Tamboti Trip Jan 2018

[Richprins]

The lazy lizard lolled listlessly!

The second one is a giant armoured lizard!

What a huge croc, Rog!

[Alf]

Where is that crocodile going

[Lisbeth]

Lovely photos, Roger

On my last trip I saw hippos grazing at 13:00 and it was very hot and sunny

The croc has bought a ticket for an "Adventure Trip"

[Mel]

If RPs ID is correct, then it is an giant armoured lizard that took my interest this time around

And the sunset... I'm a sucker for African colours

[Bushcraft]

You never got to see the tail’s owner It would have driven me crazy

Wow, a fantastic cheetah sighting and the only car

Eish hard-core before and after pics of the buffalo

Wild dogs sleeping can get boring rapidly, but it’s still another great sighting

Hippo cruising around in daylight and what was that croc up to

[RogerFraser]

just caught up

Lovely sunset.

was just saying somehow the sunset anywhere close or in Kruger is more special

The lazy lizard lolled listlessly!

The second one is a giant armoured lizard!

What a huge croc, Rog!

It was rather a big Lizard .

Yes it seemed to have its own path not sure if they had a nest up the hill

Where is that crocodile going

maybe a nest up the hill

Lovely photos, Roger

we did a sunset drive with a nice guide once who told us quite emphatically that Hippos stay in the water in daylight else they get sunburn .Since then every-time we see them out in daylight we think of the drive

I thought Skenk but it may be another lizard . Bush sunsets are always better

Hippo cruising around in daylight and what was that croc up to

yes we already have plans to check out the tree for a tail in two weeks time

The crock must have been preparing a nest or something similar

[RogerFraser]

The next day was a late start after the long trip the day before .We got into the park and the heat was already climbing .
Our first sighting is a spot the wildlife quiz



We found some Lazy lions in the shade




At Lower Sabie this Glossy Starling was pretending to be a Woodpecker or Hornbill



This Croc was chilling in sunset dam .


The Sunset Dam caretakers were watching the traffic coming and going


We turned back to head back down the H4 onto the S130 on our last drive through the park .

[Pumbaa]

Stunning shots, Roger,

love your landscape shots and we quite often do see hippos outside the water sometimes also during the heat of the day

[Richprins]

Aha! A "Spt the Animal"?

Interesting starling bahviour...

I like the caretakers, Rog!

[Lisbeth]

There is a leopard in the grass

Also the lions are well hidden

The lizard in the last chapter is a giant armoured lizard as RP said
