Sorry to those with slow dail-up.
The Loofa tree at the Swazi border
Along the road in Swaziland
Pigging out at camp
Nyala raiding a tree in the rain
I'm going horsey to see more wild
more to follow...

Horses in pajamas
Blesbok stare... who's gonna win?
The Blue Wildebeest, camera shy
This lady is not leaving her eggs, she feels a bit crocky
Remember I'm on horse back, pics as good as I could get, especially standing not even 3 meters from our egg lady!

Close enough to touch Impala
And down came the rain again, Hippo and all
With the birds in the trees
Red mud is now my friend!

Wonderful pictures, Jas! So glad your horse behaved at the sight of the egg lady. I'm particularly taken with the nyala. Will know what one is next time I meet one in a crossword!
Thanks for sharing

He should be back at Cambridge at the end of Jan. I'll come visit in July after conference.
I'm glad you all enjoyed to see a bit of our wildlife. Conservation is a top priority in Swaziland, we need more of this attitude in the rest of Africa.

Thanks for the pics, Jas. I've heard that wildebeesties can be very cantankerous and unpredictable. I hope you didn't tick him off

That's why the pic is from afar. At least this one was alone, worse when you come accross a herd.
But the Buffalo is the most dangerous. When wounded it will hunt the hunter down with fatal consequences for the hunter!
