… and one for all the birders. A Little Bee-Eater today on Pakamisa
A heron, a band of mongoose and the king of Pakamisa
Sometimes a drive from the Pakamisa lodge to the horse stables can turn into a nice game drive. I first encountered a band of mongoose running across the road and I managed to take a picture as they quickly disappeared into thick bush.
Then I had my first ever sighting of a Black-headed Heron perching on of the stable fences.
And last but not least we encountered a beautiful, dark and very large male Giraffe. His name is Rufus and he is considered the king of Pakamisa 🙂
Pakamisa Dinner Plans!
Two images I took yesterday on Pakamisa.
The first one shows some of the horses looking eagerly out of their boxes for the upcoming dinner.
The second one shows Pakamisa’s Ostrich family at their evening dinner – dad, mum and 16 little Ostriches.
At work!
Isabella took a picture of me while I was setting up for some evening/night time images of the the Pakamisa Lodge. Unfortunately the moon was very bright that night and the wind picked up a lot once daylight was gone, so the twilight images come out well, but the night time shots did not work so well.
These are some of the images I took that evening.
I like this image because it show not only the lodge but its lofty location on top of the Pakamisa hills.
Just the right amount of light from the buildings to show the lodge well at twilight.
Colors on the hill – a night time shot!
