Namibia, Katima Mulilo, Namwi Island . 16/5/13

Came back to Namibia via Ngoma border crossing onto Caprivi Strip. Had intended to drive though to Kongola but Luis wanted to try his hand at catching more and biggest tigers. I would like an attempt at capturing the Wood Owl, without the lens cap this time! During the drive through Chobe we did see a lot of ellies, ground hornbills, steenies, giraffe and kudu.
Relaxing day, lovely hot, strong shower. I do like this place. Luis just started fishing ... Let's see...

Forgot to include a pic of this fella from our toilet cubicle at Senyati. The biggest, fattest gecko I have ever seen. About 6 inches long and 2 inch girth



Luis caught his tiger - 2 in total with a rather large one that got away.



This little cat adopted us again. She was here the first time we came to Namwi (about 3 years ago). She took over my chair and blanket next to the fire



Last, but not least, African Wood Owl did come back and pose for us AND I remembered to remove the lens cap



On our way to Kongola on 17/5/13. As the area is a seasonal flood plain, there is no electricity so I'm guessing there'll be no data signal. Posting this on the morning of 17/5, just in case. Oh, and Luis caught a small tiger this morning ... cat is still in the chair and all is well with the world. We'll be back!
