  3. These particular warthogs in #KrugerPark were not bothered by our presence as they stood on the roadway. As it was, we heard no grunts or snorts, and then they headed into the underbrush. #wildlife #wildlifephotography #warthog #africa #nature frametoframe.ca/we-were-quite-

  4. 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.

  5. This photo was taken about 56 years ago in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. It’s my sister and me with a game ranger.
    The rifle I’m holding is either a .303 Lee Metford or Lee EnfieId. I scanned the original black and white image and colorised it with Photoshop’s neural filter.
    As you can see both my scanner and photoshop skills are a bit dodgy.

  6. Going through some old photos that I uploaded to to a piwigo site I created years ago.

  8. Baby Genet having a nap. Satara rest camp in Kruger. Usually very shy, and primarily nocturnal, but they can be tamed fairly easily. #krugerpark #southafrica #wildlife #muskejaatkat #cat

  9. I just discovered this scan of a photo I took many years ago on an old hard drive.
    I was working in the Kruger Park near Phalaborwa gate and took the photo on my way to work. Sometimes being a packrat has its advantages.

  10. nThambo Tree Camp Safari Highlights

    After bidding farewell to the mesmerizing Umkumbe Safari Lodge, we set our sights northwest towards nThambo Tree Camp, both nestled within the expansive Kruger National Park. Following a seasoned piece of advice not to tether ourselves to a single location, considering the capricious nature of wildlife, we strategically chose two distinct accommodations on opposing sides of the park to maximize our chances of encountering the renowned ‘Big 5’. The “Big Five” refer to five large African mammal species: Lions, Leopards, Elephants, African Buffalo, Rhinoceroses.

    The journey, spanning approximately 3 and a half hours from Umkumbe to nThambo, offered glimpses of South Africa’s commercial landscape as we made a brief stop at a rest area for snacks and refreshments. I took the opportunity to stretch out and catch a nap during the mostly uneventful highway drive. I missed the opportunity to take images.

    Upon our arrival at nThambo Tree Camp, a delicious brunch awaited us before we embarked on an exhilarating afternoon game drive.

    The tree houses exuded opulence, providing a lavish retreat amidst the wilderness. Each abode boasted a sumptuous king-sized bed, a bathroom replete with on-demand hot water, a toilet, and a writing desk.

    Unquestionably, the highlight of each room was the breathtaking view it offered of the surrounding park. From this vantage point, we marveled at the wildlife spectacle: Giraffes, Hyenas, Elephants, Impalas, and an array of other fascinating creatures graced the camp with their presence. (Yes, I have a lot of luggage – After nThambo we head to Durban to scuba dive with whales, sharks and sardines.)

    The nights were serenaded by the echoing roars of lions, a haunting yet captivating reminder of the untamed beauty just beyond our sanctuary. Remarkably, even this awe-inspiring chorus failed to keep me from drifting into a peaceful slumber.

    In the picture above, we stopped for sundowners on our evening safari drive.

    Every evening, the camp treated us to a welcoming campfire preceding our dinner. The experience was incredibly soothing, offering the perfect opportunity to enjoy a drink before the meal and providing warmth as the night air grew cooler.

    All video was shot with a Panasonic GH5 and 100-300 lens. The still images were shot with an iphone.

  11. A nice sighting this morning. You don’t see cheetahs all that often.

  12. 9/365
    Pile of camping stuff, getting ready for our trip to the Kruger. We have very limited pack space, camping with the #Jimny this time.

  13. I still regret I didn't have a video camera to film this. The elephant slowly sneaked up to the lion. It got to about a meter away before the lion noticed/decided to move away. #elephant #krugerpark #lion #wildlife

  14. This is the closest I have ever been to an elephant.
    We were visiting a farm bordering the Kruger Park in South Africa. The farmer said jump on the back of the pickup, we are inspecting fences.
    This young elephant was curious and came to check us out. The pickup is about 2 meters from the fence.
    The electric fence is a halfway effective attempt to keep the elephants out of the sugar cane fields and citrus orchards. Your average elephant has a sweet tooth. #elephants #wildlife #krugerpark

  15. Not a great photo by any means but one I really value. This is a huge elephant bull I encountered near Mooiplaas in the Kruger park.
    He stood in the road in front of me when I came arround a corner. He moved into the bush before I could get a photo in the road. I believe he is the well known tusker Masthulele that died in 2016. For more info see sanparks.org/parks/kruger/elep

  17. So, crunch time... so so many knots to tie... joys of being company owners 🤪.
    But KNP here we come; on 8th of Feb from Crocodile Bridge up to Mopani and back down; staying at Talamati for the first time. Almost 2 weeks in the bush will be good for the soul 💚

    Im Kruger-Nationalpark in Südafrika ist ein Sicherheits-Team im Einsatz, das Wilderei bekämpft. Es setzt sich aus Frauen zusammen und wird „Black Mambas“ genannt.

  21. River of Time

    Sabie River, Skukuza, Kruger National Park, South Africa. RIVER OF TIMEUnderneath the old railway bridgeOf rusted steel and concrete;Basking in the sun,The Sabie River runs.Constant in its grace,Today it moves at snail's pace.The water gleams silver in the sun,And golden brown in the shaded deepsAs it glides underneath the overhanging trees.The river is home to the pod of hippoAnd a haven for the Nile crocodile.It is flanked by long sweet grass -(A gift from the summer rains)Which cools the […]
