In the Delta, we've had a quiet day and night, the trio returned fro their morning in the bush with Leano, Amos & Dazo, the boma is looking good with all the holes filled and the drainage trenches cleaned out.
Around midday I came across the impala herd, they were in camp around the shower area, I stood very still and they came within 10M. plucking leaves as they slowly moved off, A most magical moment.
Marula's lasted lesion has improved, although she still shows discomfort when the medication is applied and insists on covering her head with earth as soon as the treatment is done. Tabu's foot was treated in the normal way with the usual nonchalance. the trio departed on their afternoon quest ...
At some point during the day some ropes broke on the tarpaulins over the container, two of the three had come down, these were fixed in the afternoon, with string from the used bails.
The trio returned just before 8 and all was quiet through the night.
During the night the three toed hyena had walked the road from the boma to the camp, his tracks were clear in the mud on the road, Amos told me, he was the one that often visits, he is responsible for missing boots and has tried to carry off the guys food store trunk on more than one occasion.
The trio departed this morning with Dazo, Amos & Leano towards the East. Moks has some laundry to do while Sunny and Two have started work on the children's camp area, this will take a few days I think as its quite overgrown now.
I've just had a visitor, Pete from Stanley's just came by for a coffee, it was nice to have a chat with someone from Maun. as I writing this a large monitor lizard has just passed coming from the termite mound beside the tent, now I think its men's tea o'clock...
