I love this image of a Thanda Safari Lioness which I took on Friday – a real Lion beauty …
… and sorry for not blogging for a while. I was extremely busy over the last few weeks but I promise a detailed post with many pictures soon!
Have a great week!
Over the last few days we had some incredible sightings on Thanda. But these are two of my favorite images from ten exciting game drives.
A White Rhino Bull last night and a Black Rhino this morning.
More soon …

Black & White under the African Sky – a sight to behold, to cherish and to never forget!
Just now – for the first time in the last two weeks – I had a chance to think about a blog message. I thought you might enjoy a summary of all my Instagram images posted since my last blog post on 29 August, And I have included four new bonus images for all my blog followers 🙂
Let’s start with the ‘bonus material’ …

Sorry – I have not blogged for quite a while as I was very busy before I went of my off time.
Earlier this week I visited Nambiti Game Reserve and stayed at Nambiti Plains Lodge. Then I visited the Blood River Battlefield. This battle between the Boers and the Zulus was one of the most important events which shaped South Africa’s history. A very impressive monument – build by the Afrikaans people – and a rather neglected museum – documenting the battle from a Zulu perspective – serve as reminders of this battle. And now I am at Fugitives Drift Lodge near the battlefields of Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift just above the Buffalo River. One of my favorite locations in KwaZulu Natal.
Here are a few pictures – including some drone images I took during this trip. I hope you enjoy them!
