A new tour and
the first activity was the sunset drive. A beautiful sunset, a shot of Amarula
and then sightings of rhino, kudu, waterbuck, bushbuck, Impala and scrub hare
made for a great first experience of the Kruger.

Today can be
split into three parts, two of them were extremely quiet, the third very
productive!!!!
The highlight
of the day was our hyena sighting. Six adults all outside their den sunbathing.
Then after leaving the sighting only to return later we found a young cub,
still completely black, suckling from mum.
Our second
highlight was a sighting that lasted only about thirty seconds. But this animal
is seldom seen and so it is something to savor when it is spotted. The animal
in question was a honey badger which as soon as we saw it started to move away.
Luckily for us the grass was short and it followed a footpath giving us a bit
more time to watch it.
Also seen
elephants, rhino, buffalo, giraffe, warthog, kudu, waterbuck, zebra, wildebeest,
Vervets, hippo, crocodiles, Impala, steenbok, bushbuck and common duiker.
Birds included
southern ground hornbill, black stork, wooly necked stork, African fish eagle,
magpie shrike and purple crested turaco.
