Week In Pictures: Kruger’s Klaserie Vs Botswana’s Okavango Delta

Our week in pictures story is normally launched on Friday but we’re ahead of the game this week. Why? Because Saturday is Valentine’s day and we have a heartwarming story that will be posted tomorrow.

This week has seen an influx of images from our photographer, Jochen, who is based in the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve. In conjunction with that, Kevin and Chloe have just sent through a plethora of wildife images from the Okavango Delta. Kevlo (combine Chloe and Kevin’s name) appear to be having an incredible time on their African adventure with Afrika Ecco Safaris.

The Klaserie saw an abundance of African wild dog sightings this past week, the birth of a buffalo calf, a hippo showdown and elephant herds swimming in the dam. Oh, and let’s not forget – there were also sightings of the Trilogy coalition of lions. There is a consistent flow of ranger reports about the the presence of elephant herds around our camps. For all the Ornithologists out there, there have been reports of tawny eagles, herons and vultures.

It seems Kevlo have spotted plenty of elephants, hippos, zebra, baboon and red lechwe while in the Delta. I am sure they are enjoing taking photos of wildlife dotted against the Botswana horizon while exploring untouched corners of the globe.

Browse through this week’s images and let us know your favourite image – is it one of Kevlo’s photos from the Okavango Delta or Jochen’s photos from the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve?
