Ultimate Contenders: Lions and Buffaloes of the Delta

  One predator, and one prey, yet almost evenly matched; lions and buffaloes have become renowned enemies in the wetland of the Okavango Delta. The brute force of the heavy-horned bovids, their notorious temperaments, and the fight for survival make these herbivores a dangerous target, even for lions. Highly documented by wildlife filming power couple, […]

Week in Pictures: Big Cats and Birds!

It’s the beginning of a new year and it is summer in the south! The vegetation is creating jewel-coloured backdrops for some superb wildlife photography, and one finds themselves forgetting what the bush looked like only a few months ago before the precious rains arrived. Game drives begin earlier in the mornings and later in […]

Hold the air traffic – there’s a lion on the airstrip!

This is one of those things you would only hear about in Africa, where rumours of pet elephants and lions in the garden circulate the globe. We landed with Major Blue Air in the blissfully jolty fashion that shook us out of a mesmerised state after having flown over this epic World Heritage Site in […]

Week in Pictures: Hyenas in the mud, and a leopard cub!

It’s getting hot, hot, hot up in the African bush, and the summer rains bring added humidity to the climate. In both Botswana and the Kruger we are seeing changes in the environment, the presence of wildlife, and animal behaviour. Migratory birds continue to fleck the air with new colours and sounds; one of the […]

The Week in Pictures: The birds, the bees, and the big things.

With such a diverse range of camps in various areas of pristine wilderness, its not surprising that the photography coming out of these areas each week is reliably great. The Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, the Sabi Sand, and the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve have produced some fantastic footage lately, and photographers Em Gatland, Kevin MacLaughlin, […]

Week in Pictures: All sorts of everything wild!

This week we’ve got a roundup of incredible images from Botswana and from Kruger where our exceptional camps nestle in their wild homes. Surrounded by the African bush, everyday is brimming with opportunity to witness something phenomenal. It is the new season of rain, and the heat is rising for summer, and with the new […]

The Week in Pictures: It’s baby season in the wild!

On a recent trip to Botswana, we bore witness to some of the first impalas to be born of the season, baby warthogs tearing up the ground in an excitable game of ‘tag’, and some of Africa’s fiercest predators in their cute n fluffy youth. Well, their presence at a bloody kudu kill tainted their innocence […]
