Shimuweni to Olifants, three

Meanwhile back at Shimuweni Cottages D and T were watching the sun rise.  We had not seen the sun for a few days.  Unfortunately we did only see the sun for a short time before the cloud cover was too much.

Egyptian Geese are territorial and object to other birds in their area.

When waiting for the walkers to return D and T walked up to the office and gate.  Signs - there are only 15 cottages, all in a row along the river bank. 

 

 

 

 

This helicopter flying along the river was a bit of a surprise ! 

 

But was displaying SA Park Logo, not some luxury game viewer

 

This acacia has long pods and called a shambok (whip) pod tree

 

 If you want to make a phone call you need to know your tree species !
