The boys are back!
Good morning everyone, the south has 2 dominant males again! They have been up and down the southern triangle, Kij Kij to Twee Rivieren and up towards Auchterlonie and they have been chasing females all over the place! They are looking extremely goooood! Approaching there prime in a couple of years they will surely be massive, also, the black manes started to develop as well. Here they shows the characteristic grimace of the Flehmen response. Enjoy and see you tomorrow!

Lyk of hy bietjie iesegrimmig is

Ja wel………..as ek enige van die wyfies in die omgewing was het ek nie net gehol nie……….ek sou sommer ‘n rustiger blyplek gaan soek het………..

Sjoe… dis ‘n pragtige foto! Dit laat my dink aan die mannetjie was ons Desember verlede jaar in Mabuasehube gesien het – aan die Botswana kant. Jy is inderdaag ‘n gelukkige man!

Die “beach boys” by Rooiputs het ons in April laat lig slaap saans. Kom oor 2 weke weer Rooiputs toe. Kan nie wag nie. Dalk al vir Mfasa gesien? Ons het so ‘n mooi foto van hom. Wonder of hy nog lewe.
