\YELLOW-BILLED KITE

medium to large bird (55 cm), previously considered a separate species, but now included as a spp of the Black Kite. It is a common breeding migrant found over most of southern Africa, returning to Equatorial Africa for the winter. It inhabits woodland and semi-arid savanna and is a highly maneuverable bird. It eats almost anything including carrion

These birds are breeding migrants, coming down from equatorial regions of Africa, from around July through to March. They can be found in a wide range of habitats and often around human settlement. They are great opportunists. Breeding is done during the months of September to November, with both parents, mainly the female, incubating for upto 38 days. They will feed on virtually any part of an animal they find as well as insects.

NKORHO

The only nuisances we have around the lodge are the Baboons, they try and get into waste bin and come into the lodge to eat the fruits from the Marula trees.

They are very strong animals and a male Baboon has larger canines than that of a male Lion. But we chase them away and the dogs keep them out.

We have had some staff who lost shoes that they left outside to get some air overnight and a Hyena stole them .

Thanks for the question

Morning from Nkorho.

Barry I have been at NK 11 months, and this was the first Bushbuck sighting for me at NK. When the Bushbuck left from the wh she came right into the lodge infront of room 3 eating the grass. I phoned Karin to tell her and she didn't believe me and Karin has been at NK 5 years.
