    Agree, however, in my many visits, I have always, without exception had good sightings of elephants and other animals at the larger waterholes. If one stays long enough, over a period of hours, there is every good chance animals arrive to water. That said, if one is only there for a 3 or 4...

    1. Just use a beanie bag or similar resting on the window. Remember, it is forbidden to exit your vehicle unless at a designated location. 3. The one thing that does occur often, is the wind will be picked up on your sound recording quite often. It can get quite windy! 3. I do this often...

    I am staying 6 nights at my fave camp - Satara, I am always lucky with predator sightings, because of the wide open spaces. I know this is a bird form, but you just can't beat seeing these close up :t:

    I am always lucky with Ground Hornbill sightings, everytime I see a good number of them. Also see the Kori and Black Bellied bustards too, as well as vultures in good numbers.

    Hello Dave, not sure why I didn't see all the posts, but Sal has given your some excellent advice. Croc Bridge is great, I am 2 nights there in April, in one of the tents. You'll be hooked, I guarantee it! To be honest, I also bought that book and it's a great reference book, but when I'm...

    Birdthing, I have just returned from a 14 day trip to KNP, my fourth since Apr 17! When I was there, Dukes was dry, as were many waterholes, and the temperature was in the 40's most days. That said, they have just had some good rains. Couple of pics of birds you are likely to see. Look out...
