Watch this short video if you want to hear what it sounds like when a young White Rhino bull gets to close to the dominant male and when his mum gives the old guy a warning not to come any closer. Not great visuals but interesting audio!

Of all the spiral-horned antelopes the Male Kudu are my favorite. These incredible creatures can jump as high as 3.5m (~12′) under stress!
Have a good week 😊

I love baby Rhinos with an attitude. This little boy gave me some good snorts. But when I switched on the vehicle he did a high-speed retreat to mum 😊

I love these amazing creatures. Leopards can disappear more effective than Houdini ever could, they can carry more than their own body weight up a tree, and they can see seven times better than humans in the dark!

I took this picture of a Thick-billed Weaver on its nest during my recent boat cruise of Lake St.Lucia.
Besides Hippos which are the main feature of the these cruises we saw Nile Crocodiles, a Giant Heron, a Malachite Kingfisher, a Pied Kingfisher, a Striated Heron, White-faced Whistling Ducks, multiple Fish Eagles, and many other Weaver species.
It was a successful morning!

Have a good week 😊

Secretary birds have the most distinct face color of all African birds of prey. Their speciality is hunting for snakes and other small prey while walking.

As I returned from a town trip I decided to drive back home through iSimangaliso Wetland Park (Eastern Shores) and stop at a small waterhole. I only had my mobile phone with me so I took a few pictures through my binoculars.
In total I counted 15 different species, which came for a drink during the 20 minutes I stopped at the water.
Species list: Spur-winged Goose, Egyptian Goose, Yellow-billed Kite, Hadada Ibis, Blue Wildebeest, Waterbuck, Nyala, Warthog, Pied Kingfisher, Barn Swallows, Red-breasted Swallow, Black-bellied Bustard, South African Giraffe, Burchell’s Zebra, and Common Buzzard.
