With the end of the month also comes the need for my regular monthly update. It has been another exciting month as the dry season continues. A lot of activity happens around water and the Sabie river produces great success with regular lion sightings. Mlondozi dam also has lots of game drinking there during the day, including large herds of zebra and wildebeest. This month I had 4 amazing black rhino sightings. Live ones, that is, as I also saw a dead one on which the lions fed (see earlier blog). As the season is starting to change with the oncoming of spring, I’ve already noted some changes in the bush. Trees are starting to bud and flower. Some early migrants have already returned, like flycatchers and yellowbille kites. Weavers are also getting their breeding plumage and starting to build nests. This kind of activity will increase next month. I’m looking forward to it.
