The final trip of the season has been completed and the rainy season has officially arrived in the Kruger area !
Finally the pressure of the dry season was broken and the rains brought fresh new grass and leaves to the park. Bird activity was impressive with a number of migrants returning.
News from the Big Cat Reserve is that the new baby elephant is still doing well although we did not manage to see it on this trip.
Many thanks again to the staff at the Big Cat Reserve and to our ranger Jaco !
The next trip report will be from the trip to Tanzania's Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti next February where we expect to see the gathering of 1000's and 1000's or Wildebeest in the open plains of Southern Serengeti.
All the very best to everyone and look out for the client photos that will be posted soon. If anyone still wants to send in some photos for the Client Blog then please feel free, 600px on the longest side will fit best.
Warm regards from us all
