With my daughters here for their holidays and of course with Christmas upon us I’ve been taking it rather easy the last week or so.
Well many think my life is just one big holiday, so now I’m proving it really is.
I went horse riding with the girls first thing in the morning and on the way back home found this Yellow-billed Hornbill thoroughly thrashing this new born monitor lizard. It was firstly making doubly sure the little thing was dead, but also not being equipped to tear it apart, it had to make the prey as swallowable as possible. This meant thrashing it around making it supple. The hornbill then flew off with his prize to give to his mate holed up in a tree where she’s sitting on eggs.
After a leisurely day in camp we met up with a number of friends at Hwata pan for sundowners. Drinks in hand, kids swimming in the pan – Pretty rough stuff!
Truly a most wonderful start to Christmas.

Kim, I hope that you and yours have a very happy Christmas and that the New Year will bring you everything you wish for.
Go well. Be good. Stay wild.
I never thought it would eat that guy! I guess it is important to make sure it is dead before eating! Happy Holidays to you and your family! Thanks for all the wonderful post this summer!
Its nice to see the guy prepare the Christmas feast, his lady is too busy elsewhere.
Merry Christmas to you and your family, my family and the other folks I have met at Malilangwe. It is totally impossible to get through on the phone.
Cheers,
moira
