02 June 2018 Part 1/2.

This morning we explore the circular route S100, S41, H6 and back to camp for lunch.

A vulture trying to look like a tortoise.

Oh, is this how they should look?

Image

A nice Kudu.

Image

A well camouflaged Kori Bustard.

Image

How many L.B.R.'s do you see?

Image

A close up of one of them.

Image

We all know this popular guy.

Image

Seen from N'wanetsi.

Image

An ellie crosses the H6.

Image

Unforunately this circular route did not prove to be as exciting as I have read it to be. Maybe next time.

To be continued.

Thank you Flutterby. Makes me feel better. I thought we were the only folk that hid when we came along.
