All the small antelopes are usually very shy. Yesterday morning this Common Duiker only stayed long enough for one single picture 😊
PS: This week’s Wednesday bird was a Giant Kingfisher.

This Red-billed Oxpecker was using the boss of a Cape Buffalo bull as a take-off platform 😊
Have a good week!

As I drove past Thanda Safari’s Villa iZulu this afternoon I saw a Giraffe bull staring at the gate. He did this for a good reason as one of our Lionesses had taken position in front the entrance, for a bit of extra bush security! 😊
PS: I will be taking a bit of time off and therefore only post once per day. Normal service will be restored next Friday 😊

The sun + a waterhole + some clouds + an iPhone = a record of last night’s beautiful sunset 😊

This young Cape Buffalo calf had a drink with mum just as the sun was setting. For some reason – not obvious to me – these two were not with a herd but moved around by themselves. It is possible that they might have caught up with their family after they left the waterhole.
Have a good evening!

It does not happen often that I post bird pictures two days in a row, but yesterday’s Martial Eagle sighting was very special. I was really glad that as rather large mammal I was not not on the menu list of this impressive raptor.
Enjoy your day 😊

This is the second video with music from the album ‘Under the Marula Tree’ by ROOT, a local band. It features some of my pictures and videos taken at Thanda Safari.
The music is composed to symbolize African nature icons (eg sunrises, Lions, Elephants, …). This very special album is available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Deezer for streaming and download! https://root.hearnow.com/
Enjoy the Lion’s Roar 😊
