Kariega - Game Drive 2
Saturday morning was an early start and we watched to sun gradually dissipate the early morning mist from the valley. We encountered the following - Amur falcons, Lions, Nyala, Impala, Yellow Billed Kites, Crowned Lapwing, Mouse bird, Rhinos and Kudu.
In the middle of the day, I foolishly went for a walk along a trail within the lodge but forgot to bring a cap and water! I did see several huge spiders, Livingstone’s Turaco and a couple of Dung Beetles.

Sunrise from our balcony


The sun slowly clears the mist


A male Ostrich looms out of the grey

Burchells Zebra are almost invisible


A pair of Nyala

Slowly the mist clears

Lovely little Amur Falcons


A sleepy male lion



A lioness and her mate doze in a thicket




A large spider awaits its prey

The lioness stirs

The male casts a glance


Bloody tourists !

One pose for the cameras !



Posing is tiring work



Then back to sleep !


I love you, Leo !


Nyala again !

Nyala foal has a drink

Yellow Billed Kite



The sleepy lion pair have moved into the trees








The mist is still hanging in the valley


Mousebird


Crowned Lapwing




A small group of White Rhino
