Poor giraffe is trying to get a drink at EP with the dagga boys not giving up their day spa! Smiling Wish zoomie were a little more attentive to what is going on. Sad

I don't think the giraffe at NK can make up her mind if she is thirsty enough to go to the effort to go to the waterhole and get leaned down, only to have the saddle-billed stork startle you and make you jump! Smiling

Saddlebill Stork spent a couple of hours at NK this afternoon.  He was joined by a what appeared to be a large flock of Crested Francolins ??  They were in bad light so not really sure.

All in all today was a very good day.  Earlier Gerta, Katja and Karin took a ride out to wave at the cam and say Hello . They were our Lucky Sightings Charms  today LOL. They were followed by a large herd of Zebra, 3 or 4 Giraffe, several Kudu, Warthogs, our little SS Jackal that caught what appeared to be a fairly good sized lizard, and of course our true and faithful Impala .
