Africa Wild

Lovely giraffes and a pretty butterfly

Some great pics and sightings again Flutterby.

Poor lion So sad to see them in this state.

Plenty of super doggie pics

Your night visitors were awesome - great pics too

Loved the leopard on the anthill and the lazy duiker

Lovely bird sightings and pics too

But again I don't see any water inside that waterhole

If any, why are the water level so low

For me it's dangerous for the animals because they can slip very easily on the concrete sides when trying to bend down to drink water

Also love the giraffes, however, my favourite is the one with the buffaloes and baboons at the waterhole

Thanks so much Fluterby

there is autorized to put a camera trap in the bush

nice Giraffes... at a dangerous waterhole, like said Alf

The waterhole reminds me of the one at Orpen... and we know that there have been accidents

For the sake of research, it's probably allowed, nan.

Love that picture with the giraffe head between its relative's legs and the bonus of the oxpeckers being seen as well.

It's dagha boys, Flutts! (Cement)

How interesting that camera trap thing!

The waterhole troughs simply have to wait to fill? Wonder where the reservoir is for that one, now that I think about it...

Your butterfly is a male Diadem (Hypolimnas misippus)


My fav is the baboon plus buffalo meeting

I also don't like these waterholes!

Not sure what study they were doing but they wanted to monitor all the species that visit the waterhole.

Thanks Mel. At least they have put rocks in the Orpen waterhole so if an animal does slip it has some leverage to get up.
