#SilentSunday
From the #KrugerNationalPark a couple of weeks ago. The stillness of the #African bush is good for the soul.

There was a bridge here. It was washed away.
On one of the tributaries to the Sabie River.

This close and quiet (no other cars around) is very unusual.

The #KrugerNationalPark in #SouthAfrica the other afternoon.
A tangible sense of silence, of peace. Just the snorting of hippos, and the call of birds. You can hear the grass rustle over a kilometre away.

A traffic jam I didn’t mind.
I was on my way to a customer that had their offices inside the Kruger Park near the Phalaborwa gate.

My very last video from the trip to #KrugerNationalPark #SouthAfrica is of a Lioness in the shade at the end of a hot day.

Some of the other folks had already seen Red-billed Buffalo Weaver and I was getting anxious. Then, at last! With its red beak and red feet, I’ve no idea why it reminded me of @cornishchoughs.bsky.social

Not the prettiest of species but we only had one sighting of a Bald Ibis - seemed ok to me

I think this is a Rattling Cisticola but given what the Cisticola family is like (they’re all very alike) and given that #Kruger has lots of Cisticola…more than happy to be corrected

An unusual bird in the UK but plenty of them in the Kruger..... Lesser Grey Shrike. A good looking bird.

Not a difficult bird to see, plenty of them around the water pools etc. Nonetheless a nicely plumaged species - the Blacksmith Lapwing. With the added bonus of a Wood Sandpiper.
