What a change although there’s not much change out there.
Roads are still flooded and off-road driving is almost a no no.

The lions had finished their zebra carcasses and moved into the impenetrable bush to the south of the airstrip. Thanks guys!
The girls and I wandered up the hill to get this birds eye view of Malilangwe Dam. It sure has filled in the last few weeks but still has a couple more meters to go before it spills. The last time it overflowed was in the cyclone of 2000. Will it get there this season?

With our limited access off-road we weren’t having much luck filming any big action but I found these butterflies so gentle and pleasing to watch.

While filming them the girls discovered this most amazing Pray-Mantis. This fellow looked more like a leaf or plant part than the plant itself. This was the absolute in camouflage.

It was a great day without rain, even though the action wasn’t big. It really is more about being out there and experiencing all the other fascinating little facets of life in the bush.










How wonderful seeing these butterflies gathering around in these mud puddles! Great macro work!
Music…the name please?
