Perfect Camouflage
Today was rather hectic and I did not have time for a photo.
We spotted this Water Monitor in the game reserve on Sunday.
It ran for cover as soon as I tried to take a photo but it could not resist peeping at us through the grass!

It must be raining crabs and frogs.....
We found this little Crab in a puddle in the parking lot.
 As it raised it's pincers to try and scare me off, a little girl said "It wants to hug you, Maggie!"
The reflection of a tree on the surface of the water adds interesting detail to the photo.
We have had 60mm of rain since 5am this morning - heaven sent.

This Red Billed Oxpecker was looking rather frazzled in the heat.
The sun was really hot today and a group of Zebra were "hanging out at the pool"
I took this photo as we were passing around the pool.
We sat there for a while and watched the Oxpeckers come to the water for a swim
