Greetings from an action packed delta. No sooner had the trio returned yesterday evening then the rain started again, in my tent it was difficult to hear anything other than the rain and the odd tree branch coming down, I did hear lion once again close to camp but this time to the south, then hippo to the North in between the thunder. it was about 9:30 when the impala started barking and then some more rain.
The next morning some new tracks were on the road to the boma.. lion, a female and her cub about a year old had killed an impala just off the road, and then moved next to the container and slept, they even drank rainwater from the trio's water troff. Leano & Dazo said that they had seen the lions from there tents. The trio departed to the east across the water this morning, an hour later we herd hippo mating in the same direction, it sounds just like a buffalo being killed, but goes on for much longer.
The morning was quite bright but with storm cloud building off to the North East,
The trio returned a little early from there mornings adventure and hot on there tails was a tremendous storm, it hit camp just before 2, high winds and more crashing branches. by 4 we had blue sky and sunshine! Marula's head is much the same today and the zinc/oil mutti is sticking well.
