Otter



Giant kingfisher



At 3pm we went out on a boat cruise - sole mission - find the Pel's. Some photo opportunities en route






And then ... Finally ... Our long wished for sighting of the Pel's.






The trip back yielded a breeding colony of bee eaters with crocs waiting patiently below






Will go to bed happier than usual tonight!
A hippo just attempted to climb the river bank in front of our site. One almighty kaplush later ... fortunately, he was unsuccessful.
