This morning I had an excellent vulture sighting at Thanda Safari. At least fifty of these large birds were feeding of a Zebra carcass.
After I took lots of pictures with my cameras I tried to take some images with my drone. To my surprise the vultures ignored this ‘small bird’ and I was able to capture some interesting material from the air.

What a beautiful sunset at one of my favorite waterholes at Thanda!

This morning as I drove up to the Thanda Safari Lodge. A Serval hunting on the Savanna. What a start to the day!

… enjoying a freshly made Espresso or Cappuccino on a safari in the South African wilderness after an exciting Lion sighting. What a day!
Just one of the special treats using the Green Mamba (my very special Safari vehicle) at Thanda Safari.

This Zebra spotted two of our male Lions just in time before it was getting to close to these formidable carnivores.
The cats were not in hunting mode – as they still had a fairly full stomach from their last meal – but their killing instinct would have taken over if the Zebra would have gotten to close.

This is a video clip of a European Roller taken with my iPhone 12 Pro Max this evening. The bird was very relaxed and I was able to drive up to approx 2.5 meters (8 feet). I love its colors!

I was very lucky to get this shot of Thanda Safari’s largest and smallest Elephant crossing the road together.
We tracked Ellies from the early morning throughout the day and we finally got them in the open around three in the afternoon.
A very enjoyable Long-Nose-Day!

This evening I took this picture of two young Thanda Lionesses chasing a Warthog. The pig got away and the two ladies had to continue their hunt for dinner.
