Zebra's stop by approximately or a little after 5 AM CAT for a drink.  Our very loud in the morning Egyptian Geese (E&T)  scared them off.  Cool

Morning Gerda, I'm here for just a second, but it DOES look different. It was the only one there for awhile and the others did seem curious. I wish zoomie would go back.

Edit to add: Morning' to you too Jonny!

3:22 pm CAT NK

Does anyone hear a cat sound every once in a while?  Just one deep throated grunt I guess you would say.  Don't know how to describe it.  No one seems to be disturbed by the sould so not sure.

Hi CallieG.  Apologies for not getting back to you sooner, but thanks to Gerda, the question was answered.  Also wanted to mention that I, too, heard lion roars at NK last evening.

Good morning, WC!  I'm at work so have sound WAY down.  But what a wonderful group of critters around!  LOTS of wildies, impalas, zebras.....the rain & wind don't seem to bother them too much.
