Wow where did the day go?
Another day of leisure? Wasn’t supposed to be. Although I did do a little vehicle maintenance and take to the road for a good workout.
It was only in the afternoon that I not only needed to get out, but so wanted to be out and wanted to get my camera rolling again.
I had hardly left camp when these dark heavy clouds came thundering in from the southeast. Knowing I would find plenty of plains game on Banyini I was all excited about filming all these animals in the lashing rain. Not fun for them but it does tell a story.

I was fully prepared with my cover up and animals all around me when the rain started. A few drops here and there and then a few more and that was about the only pace it managed to muster. Not the torrential downpour I was hoping for.
So gentle was the rain the animals carried on grazing hardly affected by it.

I wonder if they know, the more rain we have the better the grazing? Or do they just see the grass growing again and are happy about it?
And so the rains continue now late into the night as I sit here typing. It sure is going to be one helluva wet season! Another 4 months to go.
