We still had the occasional shower today, with quite a heavy downpour in the afternoon.

Afterwards everything seemed drenched. The light on these grass seeds caught my eye.

Today I was rather busy and did not leave the house.

These are more of the photos I took yesterday in the park

A Dikkop watches as I try to take a photo of it.

It was raining quite heavily during this shot

On the prowl....

Water flowing across the road. This was quite a common sight yesterday

Even the Warthogs were clean! Always covered in mud, I never knew they had white hair.

What was meant to be a quick trip in the rain to the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park turned out to be a five hour drive. It's a different world out there in the rain and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was thrilled to see a familiar 'face' in the form of the old one-fanged Baboon that featured in this journal last year on 23 March. He was in the road with his family and did not seem to mind us at all.

We sat there for ages and watched them interact.

He certainly needs to see a dentist ☺

It is great to see so much water in the park. 

.....and finally - this was the scene @maggieztree today:

For those who do not know - I try to take a photo at this spot every time I visit the Park.
