Sis, I think the main draw of KTP, for me, is its remoteness, relative lack of crowds, human noise, and intrusion, and absence of "technology". The ability to experience solitude and escape the hum-drum of "Life" in the Wilderness Camps, while surrounded by raw nature and Her authentic sounds or even quietude, are almost non-existent in our everyday lives. Of course Kruger has an abundance of species, which I also appreciate, but the maddening crowds have gotten to be a bit too much for me, old fart that I am.
Liz:
"I have also looked up the "Eagles' eyelids" and they have three eyelids: one closing from up to down, one from down to up and one sidewise, but no talk about a feathered one" 
Here is a quote from the same article I referenced earlier, further into the piece:
"The outside of the eyelid is covered with tiny feathers, white feathers in the case of Swainson’s Hawks, so when the eyelid is closed it really stands out."
RP, thanks so much for the Martial Eagle/Kori clarification.
