Today was a
short afternoon drive as the guests just arrived today. On camp road we already
encountered waterbucks as well as a herd of impalas, so we were off to a good
start. As they would like to see some hippos we drove to Mestel Dam and sat there
watching the hippos wake up. We got some nice action of hippos yawning, and
some pushing and shoving in the water. Some of them were half submerged so we
could get a good look at the size of them.
It was even
more enjoyable as we also saw a pied kingfisher hovering as well as catching a
fish, and some egyptian geese on the water's edge. On the way back we saw some
vervet monkeys play and just before the gate of Nkambeni saw three big bull
elephants wondering around. One of them was actually crossing the road just
next to us.
Then two of our
group went on a sundowner tonight. More about that tomorrow!
