After heavy
rains, last night, we awoke to a cold very grey overcast morning with the
expectation of more rain.
Nevertheless we
set out once again in high hopes. The highlight was our first sighting of hyena
this tour.
Just a lone
adult who was a little apprehensive of all the cars parked watching. It become
clear that it wanted to cross over the road and so we waited. As the amount of
vehicles whittled down just to two it saw its opportunity and crossed over the
road in front of us and proceeded to disappear on the other side of the road.
Throughout the
day we saw plenty of impala, kudus, waterbuck, hippo, vervets, steenbok, zebra,
warthog, a family of dwarf mongoose as well as elephant and buffalo near the
end.
The afternoon
produced more general game as well as two new mammals to add to the list in the
shape of a pair of klipspringers and a white rhino.
The rhino
completing that legendary 'big 5'
