I’ve never flown so much. In the last few days I’ve spent the same amount of time flying as it takes to fly to the US. Imagine doing that in a microlight? It’s great for a few hours but then the wind blasting becomes really tiring.
Even so, after finding the last herd of sable we needed to find, I still went flying to the south. Had to check on the dogs. They’re still west of the river but oh so close. “Please come east guys!”
As the late afternoon air cooled towards sunset, the flying conditions became optimum and I was back playing along the Runde River. Besides the great sensation of flying around there, it’s also wonderful to see the pleasure it brings those bathing and fishing in the river. They’re always full of excitement waving frantically as I buzz just over their heads.
I saw these clothes lying perfectly laid out in the sand to dry. This person seemed very meticulous in laying them out and didn’t even leave a track near the clothes. And the colour schemes? All very thought provoking.
So we managed to get the 4 collars on the Sable antelope and the research project can now move ahead.
I just wish the water level in the Chiredzi River would drop so I could cross daily to follow the dogs. I’m getting really anxious as they head towards denning time and I still have to get Puzzles totally happy with me walking around. All this time away from them just isn’t helping.
I landed today just as the sun was setting and right then these giraffe walked on to the airstrip. Perfect timing as I rushed to get my camera and nestled myself on the ground as they walked steadily towards me curious to know what this thing was on the ground.
