The THANDA CATS are back!
Today, I was able to deliver newly printed copies of the Thanda Cats book to the curio shops at the Safari Lodge and the Tented Camp.
The book is available for sale again to our guests for R990.
iPhone on EyeLevel – A Dugga Boy …
…refers to mature, solitary male African buffalo who are known for their frequent mud wallowing habits. The term is thought to be derived from the Shona word “dugga,” which translates to mud.
These bulls are frequently ill-tempered and may pose a threat, particularly if agitated. They are a familiar sight on Thanda, often seen near waterholes or mud puddles.

Productive days!
Pictures from the last 14 days taken at Thanda and iSimangaliso Wetland Park. My last few weeks were very busy, but they were also very productive for wildlife photography!
Thanda Wetlands
The area behind one of the dams at Thanda has turned into a temporary wetland, after all the rain we had over the last two months.
I hope you will enjoy this short video showing its beauty with many different bird species. Some of them are aquatic birds, which have never been recorded at Thanda before.
