Africa Wild

Hi BT

Jis you jsut go on holiday the whole time
Just love your first drive, you had an absolute great birding drive with all the sunbirds and ground hornbill
Just hate those southern roadblocks hey
The close-up opf the reed cormorant is super
I do agree about Phabeni which is hectic most of the time, it is a great gate and the S1 has produced a lot of wonderful sightings but I don't like how busy it is in the mornings

BluTuna ,
You look like an angel......... you fligh like an angel..... you're an angel in the sky together with the lovely birds....
Great pics of the birds !!

I'll chirp the same chorus as most others: Those scenery with
reflection shots are fantastic

And so is the kingfisher sequence.

about the dappled sunshine on the warties -O

I loved it! It's just a pity that it's not so easy to get to unless you get a bank loan and stay at Biyamiti.

It was one of those occasions where I couldn't go wrong, I must have over 50 good shots of PKFs hovering. Some were really close, almost full frame on my 500mm.

It was that! Our good sightings in the area between the H3 and H4 are sparse. Not a great area for us - I much prefer the S28/S130/S137 in the south.

your sunbirds do make me incredibly green

Thanks Pumbaa but I know I could have done a lot better with the Sunbirds if I had a little more patience.

Love the relection shots - on the day we were there the wind was blowing so no chance of a nice reflection.

Having the right conditions helps! It was almost perfect that day!

HA! I wish I was on holiday all the time, unfortunately I have to spend much time in the salt mine so I can go on holiday!

It's funny how people have their favourite areas. Mine are usually as far away from the south as possible (with the exception of the S28 area).

My favourite drives in the park are :-

1. Pafuri Picnic spot to Crooks Corner.
2. Kanniedood Dam road to Dipeni Outpost.
3. S28/S130/S137.
4. S90 south from Balule.
