It was a bit like the red-billed queleas sometimes a flock of them took off just to land on the other side of the road on which one obviously the flowers did look better.



Then we had to drive backwards as from behind a corner two bulldozers appeared at least at first sight they looked so.



Two beautiful rhinos walked determined right on the road and it was obvious that they do not have the intention to clear same voluntarily.



They came closer and closer and we had no choice then to put the reverse gear in to drive backwards and give them enough space.



This happened quite a view times and gladly no other cars arrived and on top finally they obviously lost interest and cleared the road and started to feed on some grass on the roadside.



The loops along that road you are allowed to drive had been extreme suffered under the recent rains and some of them did look unridable as they had been washed out extensively. We dared to drive one in order to come closer to the river and in the loop we could capture one the of many white winged widows.



Also the lesser spotted eagles occurred in a number that we have never realized ever before and this one was even willing to pose quite long.





On top they were a lot of puddles along that road which turned during the heavy rain into beautiful lakes with some nice growing bushes / trees. Due to the wet summer we in fact did not have that luck as last years as most of those natural waterholes were deserted this year.
