Well, we ended our temporary catless run today by finding a pride of around 13 lions frolicking in the almost dry river bed at Sontuli picnic spot this morning. What better way to have breakfast than watching these amazing cuts while sipping our coffee !! A little...

It was stinking hot out there today… by 10h30 the temperature had already soared to 41 deg celcius and, needless to say, any self respecting animal decided to head deep into the bush for shade. For the 3rd consecutive day that made it very tough for us a tour...

Another very difficult day out there today. After being spoilt for a few days it’s back to earth with a bang !! The weather was diabolical today. It was muggy and breezy to begin with but then the wind kicked up to gale force and the temperature plunged with it. This...

A rather quiet day in the bush today after a great start : 10 lions chilling out in the river bed at the Black Umfolozi bridge !! After that, however, it got very quiet indeed despite reports about a cheetah and another pride of lions near marker 17 in the South. Try...

The weather pattern we’ve been experiencing recently showed no signs of abating today. It was hot, windy and dry as a bone out there and our rewards were modest to say the least. We did have a good black rhino sighting and a couple of bull elephants treated us to a...

It was a very strange day in the bush today… we had a cracking first hour during which we saw wild dogs, a cheetah and a small herd of elephants. After that it was extremely tough going and very unpleasant from a weather point of view, very hot with a gale force...

We had to work long and hard for our rewards today but, eventually, after a frustratingly quiet day we came across a pride of lions near Masinda camp. They were sitting majestically on the burnt ground towards the river and their body language clearly said : “ this is...

Another hot day early on today although it did cool down towards mid morning. Luckily the wind did not pick up to any great extent. At the main Umfolozi bridge around 09h30 this morning six lions made an appearance in the river bed about 200 m away from the road. They...

Hot, dry & windy were the weather key words today out there, the temperature reached 32 celcius at midday !! Despite the heat we had a great sighting of a big lion strolling down the road next to our vehicle near marker 26 in the south. A few minutes before that,...
