HluHluwe 2011



I want to close the chapter on Hluhluwe-Imfolozi by including some chosen photos of our finds while in the camp and on game drives. Zane showed an amazing amount of interest in the animals. As I’ve said before, he is a sponge.









We didn’t discriminate in our photography. Birds, insects, flowers, primates as well as the game animals.











Here’s an industrious waste worker, a dung beetle, cleaning up after a rhino.
Sorry about the focus on the scorpion. It was small and very lethal so I rushed the photo before disposing of the insect.














Not all of the primates were in the veld; some were in the pool. This was Zane’s first swimming pool. We had taken him to the beach a couple of weeks ago and he remembered the fun of the water. He couldn’t contain his excitement and was squealing, pointing, bouncing and generally having one heck of a good time. Yes, he was (initially) covered in sun block.

And, one more Zane picture. It was a good time.
