Great blog James and fantastic images and what an exciting experience! It just goes to show, that sometimes misfortune can turn into the most amazing opportunity.

It was an amazing experience. Stunnimg images. Great memories.

Nice to see Tsalala pride back on Londolozi. They were enjoyed at Djuma and Arathusa. Thank you for the beautiful photos.

It is amazing how by taking your time and without the need to tick the box for species what can develop.
Let year with Simon Smit, I had one of my best ever game drives , simply by turning off the engine and watching.
There is a lot to be said for taking a drive at a quieter pace.

Wow..that had to be amazing.You just never know..We had some surprises when we were there in April..Sometimes it IS good to live in the moment blunder or not!

Honestly, any sighting of the Tsalala is a win as far as I am concerned. However, you earned your ‘pink’ belt with this one…I wish our family has been there to witness it. What a treasure to see the ‘tailless’ matriarch with her clan crossing a river…LUCKY!!!

surely the mechanics would prefer beer!

Coca-cola may have been a euphemism… 😉
