To relax Thanda Safari field guide Vincent Hindson loves to play some jazz on his saxophone. Enjoy the beauty of Zululand with him.
Stay home and stay safe!

Since the ‘South African Covid-19 Lock Down’ started I have posted many wildlife images and videos on my social media channels.
I have also created a new blog and Facebook page for kids (and the young at heart) on which I post a daily Q&A with a wildlife picture (www.wildlife4kids.com | http://www.facebook.com/wildlife4children)
Thanks a lot for all the very positive response to all these posts.
Quite a few of my friends around the world have asked me if I could chat a bit about various wildlife photography topics in my videos and maybe answer questions from viewers.
So here is my first ‘Wildlife Photography Academy :-)’ video. Today’s topic is ‘Smart Phone Safari – yes or no?’
I hope you like it.
If you have ideas for future topics to cover, if you have any questions about photography in general, or wildlife photography in particular then I will try to talk about these in upcoming videos.
Just post your suggestions or questions in the comment section or send an email to christian@sperka.com.
PS: These occasional video posts will be in addition to my daily STAY-AT-HOME and LOCK-DOWN-SAFARI post 🙂
What is the group name for Pied Crows?
A murder of Crows 😊 A rather dramatic name for these good looking members of the clean up crew (Pied Crows are mainly scavengers). Have a good bird Wednesday, stay home and stay safe!

With many adults performing essential services on Thanda Safari a few young children are on lock down on the reserve with their parents.
When I took little Sambulo and his parents on a game drive the young gentleman tried on my safari hat 😊.
We saw Lions, Rhinos, Buffalo and a lot of general game and he enjoyed the drive very much. But Sambulo was also a bit disappointed with me as I did not show him Elephants.
But as we are locked down until the end of the month I am sure there will be a chance for another drive to track down the Ellies! Stay home and stay safe 😊

A minute of tranquility! At the end of a game drive I often stop at the waterhole next to Thanda House. I close my eyes for a few minutes and just listen to the sounds of nature.
I have recorded the sounds and prepared a short 1 minute ‘audio video’ for you in case you want to try this at home.
Stay home and stay safe!

Today I did a single animal safari. I ran into a White Rhino bull who was on a territorial walk and I stayed with him for 2 hours observing his behavior.
This is a 3 minute YouTube video summary with video footage and a few pictures of my afternoon with ‘just’ one Rhino 😊
Have a good evening, stay home and stay safe!
