I was only able to spend the morning searching for the wild dogs. And as usual, instead I found these 2 hyaenas milling around Manyuchi pan. They were hugely excited about something with their tails erect and marching tightly side by side, sniffing all around the pan. And then as if there was absolutely nothing going on they just left heading in opposite directions.
I was sure the mother heavily laden in milk was going back to the den and I went ahead to get her calling her cubs out. She never arrived! Seems to be the story of my life.
I had to spend most of the day sorting my stuff for the 11hour trip to go south to see my daughters and do some shopping.
But later in the day still in search of some filming activity, I found 3 Kori Bustards drinking at Banyini pan. These birds don’t have to drink but will when they can. And their claim to fame is they’re also the world’s heaviest flying bird.
Playing my trump card for elephant action, it was down to Hwata pan. Was that card ever a dud? It sure was today and all I could film with the sunset were the doves coming in for their last drink before heading off to roost.
And you just can’t beat it as I sit here in the office editing and in the distance the lions are roaring!
