Tribs,

Thats actually a really good photo! The (ugly) border just spoils it! I also changed the cropping a bit. See if you can spot the difference.

Lol I know you don't like borders. You cropped close to the tail to put his mouth dead center (where the nut is) - am I correct?

The 'crane' in the riverbed is a Grey Heron :wink:

Nice place to stay though, Umfolozi is a great reserve. Looks very very dry. Hope they get some rain soon.

:lol: I did not even know that you were in that area... :P

Screeper thanks for pointing that out, I am not a bird watcher (well not that kind at any rate :P ) so to me a bird is a bird :P.

Tribz glad you enjoyed the pics, I have a few more of the warthogs getting groomed by the yung'uns if you really like them :?...

Those are lovely Koko - love the crops.
