Another nocturnal visitor (remember Senyati)
Cows have moved on so heard jackal. Slept much warmer last night and only left for drive at 8:30. Didn't seem to make much difference, cats are not to be seen.
Still good though.
Watched a pretty little lizard hot footing it across the sand. Was debating whether to get camera when a white browed sparrow weaver put paid to lizard.
Couple of yellow mongoose posing in the shadows.
2/6
Colder again last night. Lion roaring around 4:30. Moved onto neighbour's site as soon as they vacated (closer to fence - uninterrupted view of waterhole).
Morning drive proved cats are still elusive. Even jackal are shy this trip. Have only seen the two scoundrels scrounging outside camp fence. Oh, did have a sighting of 3 pairs of pointy ears in the long grass but that's it.
Our first sighting of a live eland in Kgalagadi, have only seen desiccated carcasses before.
Mating ritual, displaying then rejection and flying off with present. Subsequently sat on branch, alone and scoffed it.
Met Jim & Ady and chatted around the fire.
