Phone snaps from our recent trip to Kruger, South Africa

 

Cape buffalo crossing


Very distant vultures feeding on a dead hippo


Evening elephants at Satara, straight underneath the restaurant, a magical end to another perfect day x


A lion twitch !!


Leopard Tortoise coming onto the road for a drink after it had rained


Greater Kudu


A waterhole - could sit at these forever, magical times xx

Elephants drinking from the main tank with wildebeest and a jackal heading for the waterhole


Elephants coming to the river to drink and bathe

Camp birds were plentiful.....they could hear a toaster and bread bag from a mile away !


Afternoon chill


The river. Imagine this totally filled with water during the rainy season - quite frightening








Impala - these are the main food for alot of the predators






Cheers !  Steak and chips at the world famous Cattle Baron's. Delicious !


and I had my usual fish and chips (hake) which was not too bad, but I did have steak nearly every night after. Infact I have a confession to make........one day I had steak for lunch and then steak for tea !!


Baobob tree, none of them looked particularly healthy

and here I am returning from the camp shop, bread and milk tucked under my arm

and an elephant having a drink of puddle x
