More winter rain.

It rained on and off all day. One of those irritating drizzles. But then I wasn’t in the field so it didn’t matter much. But it did keep me out the field for most of the evening and I only ventured out there in the early hours of the morning.
Khayeni was hunting in the mist in the early hours. She was headed straight for a herd of wildebeest and I thought “Gee she’s got b…. I mean guts”. But no, there was a lone impala ram in the herd she was after.
It got away.

At day break I kept after Khayeni as she headed south into thick bush country. Not a place I wanted to be but I was determined to see where she would lie up for the day.

Well I never got there. The bush got the better of me as Khayeni kept moving in deeper and deeper and my car kept filling and filling with leaf matter. That’s no big deal, and at this rate it will give me enough to start a compost heap at base.

A few elephant bulls were hanging out at Chekwa, but not keen to enter the water in this cold weather.

On Banyini the big herd of buffalo had again come in to drink and were now followed but this procession of Guinea fowl.













Just curious Kim, is this one of the vehicles you used while filming in Mala Mala?
Great video….the cheeky devils.
