Sunset Impalas. We’re on our way home and have been having some patchy wifi. It was a really good time in the park. We finally saw a pack of painted wolves about half an hour before we drove out of Malelane Gate.

Yesterday evening on the Sabie - for my money the most beautiful river in South Africa. And that has a lot to with the huge wild fig trees that line its banks.

Long and lovely day. Goodnight.

I can’t remember if I posted one of these pics from Punda Maria restcamp in Kruger in Jan 2018. It’s far in the tropical North of the park. The waterhole you can watch from inside the camp is full of amazing visitors. Without having to be worried about gate-closing times, you can also catch them in the best evening light.

The last light reflecting off the clouds after sunset rides the wine-dark Indian Ocean waters.

@furiousgreencloud contemplates the sunlight leaving Africa for the Americas with a seagull at Storms River Mouth.

Road trippin’ in the trusty White Whale to Prince Albert for a wedding. Sun going down over the Karoo.

Just them bushveld trees and the sun going down. Living in Africa - classic edition.

Thought I’d throw this in for comparison while I’m cameraless. These are Plains Zebras, the normal, common zebra. They have “shadow stripes” between their main stripes and are less striking and contrasty than the Mountain Zebra.
