I just came back from leave and all ready its very busy with good sightings. Its getting warmer by the day and I cant wait for the rain and green vegetation.
We came across the Morati males at Tholo Dam. They were very sleepy.

We had the privelidge to see a Slender Mongoose for more than a second. He gave us a good show as he was sun bathing.

It looks like your Giant had a nice bath at
the watering hole, Jacques. Everytime
I see a Lion laying down like that I think
of a movie line "get in my belly". Lol.
Love the Mongoose too. I’m a bit of a sun
worshiper myself!
Fantastic shot of the ellies eye – what lense were you using.
Hi Cheryl.
I was using a Cannon 350D with a 300ML 5.6f Sigma lense. Not top of the range stuff but you can make it work.
Thank you for staying in youch with the Madikwe Hills blog. Have a great day.
