Young leopard still not confident on his descent plan.. Chobe can be one of the best places to find leopards, usually up in the riverine tree line.. Stop often and listen for alarm calls from impala, baboon and birds.

Swimming sable, Caprivi Namibia. Right place at the right time, was able to put myself on the high ground as the bull left the flood plain. Just 2 hours drive from Vic Falls the Caprivi region has several fantastic national parks to explore.

Great weekend away..

A couple of weekends ago we went on a educational tour of the Caprivi Strip in Namibia, can't believe we waited for so long, it was so easy to do, a great four days and 3 National Parks. Will certainly promote Namibia more, it is very doable from Vic Falls, great birding, unique wildlife and extremely friendly people.
Dy one, we departed VF at 5:30, made the Botswana border by 6:30, no other tourists at that time of the day, crossing was seamless and done in less than 10 minutes. The drive through the Chobe was fun, roan, zebra, sable (+80) and elephant. The crossing into Namibia, just as easy. We reached our lodge by 9:30, took a drive around town while we waited for our room to be ready. Katima Mulilo was much larger than I expected, but pleasant and people actually obey the road rules there! That evening we went on a boat cruise down the Zambezi, would highly recommend birding enthusiasts do this, some nice photography and an excellent guide. Caprivi River Lodge was a fine place for our first night.

Lekker snaps from a couple of weeks ago...Unfortunately with the current drought we won't see such spectacular views by the end of the dry season.

Silhouette of a Punk Rocker... Young Ground Hornbill, and in some parts of Africa, it is believed that should you kill a Hornbill the rains will come with such force that it will literally wash your land away. So strong is this belief, that in times of drought, rain-doctors will actually ritualistically kill a hornbill in order to bring the rain. Not good as these fantastic birds are considered 'vulnerable.'
