Being a mobile Safari Guide is challenging when you have only few trips. My last trip which was last year August if um not mistaken feels like 10years ago.

I was with the legendary Frank Mashebe. You know, i was only trained by the best at the company i work at.
Iv waited patiently to meet Frank and he is jus too much.

All i could write here will be jus understatements...

I am a blessed woman thanx to Wild Expeditions Safaris

Allow me to introduce the 2 Female Guides in NG32

Onks And Mos

Mos is currently working on helping other passionate females in 32 to join us. Lack of drivers license for them is a challenge that we hope to find solutions to

We are passionate on this field, we drive ourselves every day with patience. With the experience that we have and having more than 6 lodges in NG32 having no female guide is a pity

When it realized we've seen it, it decided to instantly run away instead of going back to the same hole. In it's head I bet it thought it is better to run away than being trapped in the whole😂.

The ardwolf (Proteles cristatus) is an insectivorous species of hyena, native to East and Southern Africa. Its name means "earth-wolf" in Afrikaans and Dutch. It is also called the maanhaar-jackal(Afrikaans for "mane-jackal"), termite-eating hyena and civet hyena, based on its habit of secreting substances from its a**l gland, a characteristic shared with the African civet.

YES!
Sable also paid us for patiently waiting,,,,, we Ddnt expect him at all. Jus waiting by the river side 4 those coming to drink on a hot dsy can jus turn ur trip in2 wonders.

Sable is a rotund, barrel-chested antelope with a short neck, long face, and dark mane. Both males and females boast impressive ringed horns that rise vertically and curve backward. When they arch their necks and stand with their heads held high and tails outstretched, they resemble horses. This flexed-neck position makes sables appear larger than they really are. The males maintain this position even when they gallop, as the arched neck is an important manifestation of dominance.

As they grow older, sables change color. Calves are born reddish-brown, with virtually no markings. As they age, the white markings appear, and the rest of the coat gets darker — the older the animal, the more striking the contrast.

1 of the secrets to discovering quite amazing sights like this 1 here is to walk or drive into an area of you interest, sit there for a good time and wait for that moment to capture. Believe me u will be surprised as to what u will discover there.

I have never seen elands nor sables at Ditshiping area, maybe I hadn't given myself and guests the opportunity to.

But, this scheme has shown it's success as we waited for atleast 1 hr 30 mins at Kaziikiine area. Boom! elends came to drink. The biggest of the world's antelope,

If u see 1 make sure u get your cameras ready for beautiful shots because they would run away fast and youl never seen them again.

As we waited someone special also arrived , stay tuned for the next posts to know who

The Leopard is the smallest of the big cat family, but are one of the most daring. They are known for their spots on their fur called rossets and live in a wide range of countries across Africa, Asia and Southern Russia.

These wild felines are known for their incredible hunting powers, speed, and climbing capabilities. They’re also known for a diet as various as their habitats.

zebra stripe is unique to the animal, meaning that no two zebras alike have the same stripes. Their stripes are unique to them as fingerprints are unique to a human. Although to the human eye, these stripes seem the same, these unique stripes help other zebras tell them apart in the wild! A zebra can track its family by the pattern type of its stripes. The reason zebras even have stripes in the first place is for thermoregulation. The black stripes absorb heat from the sun and warm up zebras during the early morning, while the white stripes reflect more light and help them cool off while they stand and graze in the blazing sun of Africa all day.

Black pools area in Moremi..

I must say... It was a success and productive as well.. General game is just amazing

Areas like this 1 is where you come in between 11 and 12 ona hot day and wait 4 all who come 2 drink...

It is always a happy sighting of elephants coming in a hurry.. Elephants of all ages.
Finding the best position for your guest and waiting for the moment is a really a win

Lions for breakfast are the best...

These was a morning sighting in Moremi.. There were 2 males, we had sighted them the day before this 1 but it was hot by then. Therefore, were deep in sleep.

In the area was moraka dinare.... That explains why this boys had not gone far that we were able to see them again next day.

Lions are known 2 follow breeding herds of Buffalos for easy lunch and dinners whenever.

We were not surprised as we waited for a big herd of over 1000 Buffalos passing by our vehicle herding west, the last 2 Buffalos had scars, 1 even had lost its tail.
It was clear evident that this predator had started trying it's lunch on them for dinner

LIONS FEEDING ON GRASS

This 2 guys, we had spotted them in Moremi feeding on grass

Lions will of course feed on grass for some reason. Being a carnivores lions need some source of fibre to help with the displacement of stomach acid.
Therefore grass would help expel indigestible items such as fur or feathers from their prey. They would intentionally feed on it to induce vomiting.Other reason include lack of folic acid.

Believe me or not the earth and it's inhabitants connect in an unbelievable manner. The energy cycling around animals including people, plants, the air, the waters is unbelievable.

Take for example you are sitting next to someone that you probably do not get along with so well, the vibe and negative energy emitted from either or you is undeniably felt. Comment down below if you believe or get what I am talking about here.

The feelings and emotions possessed by people and or animals can be felt and this is incredible.
1 day I was surprised, on a congregation of people I felt this immense emotional pain coming from another lady I know. I then had a feeling that I can comfort her or do something about that. I was surprised to see her crying and hugging 1 lady and I knew immediately that the energy I felt was true.

Another day I was walking and I met this man(Kgarathi) and from know where I felt like I should ask him if he is available to go to church and all. He said he really wants to and we agreed that we shall go together. I couldn't find him afterwards and my spirit was restless and worried for him that I texted his sister to ask where he was, I finally met him unfortunately he passed away.

Do not be fooled. That energy you feel on the onset about any1, anything, about the environment that you are in at the moment. Bare in mind that I mean the energy not your thought or mind. It is crucial to be calm and listen to the energy and act accordingly.

When I reach places like this on the picture, the mind overload, the negative energy dissappears without my input. This tells me that the wilderness is a better place for peace, calmness, love, a place to take advantage of and draw in positivity and soul healing from. Energy is powerful, we either realese or connect.

There are many examples that can testify this topic. Have you ever lived or joined a group of toxic people and felt your beautiful energy being drawn out of you and ure left with a weird flin dat u don'

Giraffes also known as girrafa camelopardalis were previously thought to being a mixture of a camel and leopard hence the scientific name...

After genetic experimentations studies has shown that there are closely related to okapi.

Below I have put a picture of okapi to get u 2 understand a little bit

Where I off load my minded...
A lot of times when I am in town I would literally feel my mind getting filled up and the moment I set my foot outside into the delta, my mind feels refreshed and ready to start loading new things now.. It is a beautiful feeling and I can't really explain it

I spent my 1st training year as a walking Guide before I did game drives

I must say it gives so much exposure to small details that you could not care of while on a drive...
Here are some of the Specimens that I had to study as I walked Ditshiping area which is my favorite walking area in okavango delta. It always feels so great to find this pieces up close

Although I did not put a picture of a dragonfly here, I must say dragonflies are also 1 of my favorite, they are beautiful and eye catching.

Mokoro can be driven with different speed... I just havent calculate the fastest speed 1 can pole the mokoro..

This video shows the lowest speed at which 1 can travel to let guests feel the peaceful waters, hear the birds singing in the river,...it brings about total relaxation of body and mind and allows you to Meditate and clear your head...

1 time I listened to an interview made for the bayei people regarding their traditional mode of transport which is the Mokoro.. Traditionaly was a dug out and of recent made from fibre glass as an initiative by the government to protect trees..

I can imagine how much trees would have been cut down by now since mokoro is now used for commercial purposes as compared to the past where its uses was just limited

Thx to the government of Botswana

Back to the interview: interviewee passed a statement that says he feels much safer with the mokoro than cars, mokoro is our best, beautiful and cool way to travel on water...
I feel honored to be part of the bayei tribe

Since our parents traveled all the way from Namibia to Botswana we only transited the Okavango delta, okavango is our heart, we can't live without it, we only know okavango. To take me and say I trade it for city life will be a waste of breath because I will never trade my delta for anything. Joh!!!!

If u listen very well you could here a whistle from 1 of the gentleman here.. That is how bayei communicate with a honey Guide to lead them to the honey comb... It works like magic
