Today we did quite a long morning drive. We started on the H1-4 then did the S89, S90 and S41, before returning to Satara via the S100. We saw a lovely variety of birds and animals. I am posting the highlights and letting the photos tell their own story today.

















We arrived back at camp at 13:30. After doing camp chores and having a rest, Cathy and Alec went for a short drive at 16:00, but the Earl and I decided to stay in camp. They returned after an hour to say we hadn’t missed much except for some lovely hippo.



What a beautiful tusker!

He was indeed, Dries. Do you think he is a tusker?

He certainly is in my book! Perhaps not named yet, but I am sure the SANParks researchers will be most interested in the details of your sighting.
