Good day everyone, our safari season is starting and the sightings are heating up, so is the weather. The hotter, the more animals depend on water, so activities around the waterholes and rivers are picking up. Elephants bathing, predators lurking and birds very active early mornings.
We will be hosting safaris on Chiefs Island, Kalahari, Khwai & Savuti over the next 2 months. Looking forward to some great sightings.
Just a quick note about our Kalahari Safari next year in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. We only have 2 spots left for 26 November – 02 December 2017.

We just came back from a 3 week stint in the bush working around especially waterholes and rivers. Sightings was constant and we had a great time. We share with you today elephants at sunrise!

Good morning.
We are heading back to the bush after a resupply in Maun. Sightings have been great and the winter is gone. Things are heating up and getting very dry. My favourite time of the year, hot, sweaty and in November the beautiful dramatic skylines appear with amazing sunsets.
We share with you today an image I took last week of a mongoose that did not give up easily. It gave this young lion a very uncomfortable bite on the nose. Although the 2 lions did kill 2 mongoose, this particular one made it after the lion dropped it and ran back into an old aardvark hole.
This was only the second time I have ever seen this behaviour. They do not eat the mongoose, it is all about the chase for the lions.

We have 2 more spaces left on our October Safari in the Savuti/Khwai. Interested?
