Thanks sabine!!!

Good Saturday to everyone. 

Hi Marsha

Holding thumbs for lots of sightings! 

We need an exciting night, sabine.  Hope this is it!

 ANY ONE  SEE MY 

SNORKASAUROUS  ??

Back for a fleeting moment...doesn't look like I've missed anything.

But I am leaving with a giggle at Alf's Snorkasaurus. lol 

Have fun and hope the critters all come out soon. 

We are so due for a Snorkasaurous at the WH. Maybe tonight.

Ohhh dear, zebra alarm. Here comes Snorky!!!!

I am having a hard time getting work done with all this noise going on.  I have to look......each alarm, each noise. I have a wh in one corner, forums on top and trying to work in this tiny little space in the midde.  To top it all off.. a cat pushing papers on my desk.  I wish there was a way someone could yell at me.

Evening/Morning everyone!  Don't think I'll make it to sunrise at Nkorho I'm absolutely beat from staying up way too late the past few nights and sleeping next to the computer and we have to get up early tomorrow for the zoo.  So I'm hoping for kitties before my bedtime!

Any recent updates from the rangers about lion or leopard locations.  I know they said earlier the leopard tracks from last night were lost but they had found one to the west or something.

I know what you mean rattiecat.  I always have to run and check, run and check!!!  I am sure kitty is a big help.

Hi JYeagersgrl, no news but lots of noise around.

Hearing zebra alarm as I write.

I'm going to go and get a few things done but I will be back later.  Always lurking!!

Is there a bulb burnt out or something at EP too its so dark to the left and the images are grainy

Hello all Lots of noises tonight

Yes there is a bulb burnt out on the right = Jacques adjusted the cam so that we had better light but its still a little off - bulb will be replaced in the morning.

I thought the bulb Jacques was talking about was at NK?

wildie visit drinking at NK..

oops my mistake I you where talking about nk. To the best of my knowledge no new problems with ep

Good evening everyone while I get my foot out of my mouth.  How is everyone?

LOL okay.  It just seems much darker and grainier to me than usual but then again the past few nights I have been unable to get EP up at all.

I wonder if an ellie is coming somewhere cause I keep hearing lots of cracking noises on one of the cams.

So do I and was wondering what it was.

Hello there.  Can you tell me what time the sun comes up at NK watering hole and are there many animals there in the early morning?

hyenas whooping it up in the distance at nk

Hi Toffee and welcome if I haven't welcomed you already.  The sun will be up at about 5 or 5:30 SA time.  Its hard to say how many animals will be there.

Thanks Alf.  I am watching from eastern Canada and I know there is 5 hours difference so the sun should be rising there between 12:00 and 1:00

Sorry about that Karen.  I don't know why I thought it was Alf that answered me.  Ooops

No problem, we all goof up once in a while.  No harm. 

The gang usually starts arriving around 2am est.
