Jutta and I are overwhelmed by the lion sighting last night, but another day dawns, and we have time for a game drive before heading to the airstrip at 11:30……..just the two of us in the plane, so we can be a little late if something good happens. Amos is pumped and ready to go……..5:45am into the truck. We drive to a different part of the property we haven’t seen before…….a high grassy plain with incredible views………zebra, giraffe, thompson gazelles, more white rhino………no black.
This young fella has got some moves!
A morning mud bath
Coffee break with some friends
A little jackal keeping his eye on us
What a beauty
And then it happens……eagle eye Amos spots a black rhino……..how can this guy see things so far away?…….we are on the move, very cautiously, as this guy will bolt in a heartbeat if we approach too quickly. Although they look quite similar, this is a different animal from the white. This sighting pretty much puts a wrap on everything we wanted to see here in Africa. Everything else is just gravy from this point forward. We have to get rolling…….our plane is waiting.
