Dag 15: Hazyview, met de gids van WildPhotoAfrica (VJ) door Kruger Park

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

Today the first day with a photo-bird-guide from WildPhotoAfrica. The guide knows where the birds are, has patience and forces some luck. With such a guide you realize how much you miss because you just drive past. It also helps a lot that the guide can recognize the bird sounds. But an elephant can also be photographed :-).
