Fabulous meerkat sighting Mel! I'm a bit confused about the water/dam you found on Ubejane - perhaps it had dried up by our visit?

Thanks, Lis and nan

And I got some more of a small thing coming up soon. Also my bestest sighting of those... ever

Sorry, I missed your post, PJL... I probably opened to answer the girls just as you were posting...
As for the dam: I remember that I was actually surprise about the amount of water in there because it was more like a puddle back in 2012 -
even though we were there at the same time of the year. So, yes, I guess it must have dried up between the start of April and July

Stunning meerkat pics Mel.
Sorry, Your pipit is an African one.
Don't think mountain pipit occurs there.

(But I may be wrong

).

Yeah, I feared that, Dewi... but thanks for the ID.

And I think you're right about the mountain thingies not occuring there anyway
RP, taaa

But don't you think that the blue wildebeest is even uglier than the black one?
