Thanks so much for the comment. Sounds like you had some amazing sightings! If you’d like to keep in contact you can email me on southafricanwanderer@gmail.com or my number is 0836937710 🙏🏼

Thanks Cynthia! I’ll send it to you later this morning

Hi Cynthia, here is the link: th-cam.com/video/_qLWV-Pw4To/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RslhuuXHQjNpiG9a

Yes I’ve been there one of my favourite spots to pop into and catch up with Chris and the guys and see what new scapes they’ve come with!

Thanks 🙏🏼

Thanks so much!

I will do that. There’s a few clips where the wind noise and the rattle of the corrugated roads cut the sound out but will try to balance those better

Yes I hope you will be back again soon!

Thanks 🙏🏼

It's beautiful up in the north, some unique vegetation and habitats!

I’m generally unfit so it will depend on how fit you are. If you are carrying the baby carrier I think you should be more fit than me

Hi I was in the park last Saturday. Some of the tar roads are bad with potholes and some dirt roads corrugated after the late rains in May. Sightings are getting better as we head into winter and the grass gets shorter, but the grass is still long and lush in some areas. Will be there again on Saturday and I’ll revert

@@SouthAfricanWanderer thank you so much, love the content!

@@seanvandermerwe4817 thanks so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks so much! A lot of it is just internal talk as I drive through the park. Which camps will you be staying at!

You share your thoughts with "internal talk" and take us along for the ride from our homes. Too many people release KGT videos with no narrating, which I find extremely boring. We stay 3 nights TR, 3 nights Nossob River chalets, 2 nights MM river chalet, 1 night Kalahari tent, 2 nights Kieliekrankie and 2 nights Urikaruus.

@@edwardillingworth5660 wow that’s going to be a good trip! You must let me know how it goes. Nossob definitely holds a special place in my heart though

Glad you enjoyed it! If you have any questions feel free to contact me on here or on email as well!

@@SouthAfricanWanderer good to know thank you

It was a good day. But sightings were few and far between

This one isn’t too bad. We saw one of the parabuthus species in camp

Amazing

Thank you so much!

Thanks it was such an awesome short trip!

@@SouthAfricanWanderer That's so wonderful you enjoyed it 😊

They varied but it was only a problem in the second hut I think. I think it’s at least 2 toilets and showers each hut. And there’s 12 people on the trail so you are sharing with 6 people. But you will have time after arriving each day.

Sorry, I must add that second hut was a problem because it rained all day on the first day of hiking so we were all soaked through. And one of the shower doors were broken. Here’s the link to the hike on the day: Whale trail Day 1 Potberg to Cupidoskraal - One of my toughest hiking days! th-cam.com/video/CT-hDT7BLMk/w-d-xo.html

Thanks so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks 🙏🏼

Thank you so much Sarwan Mams! 😀

Yeah I blinked and he was suddenly eating one of the smaller birds! I don’t use it when I’m out alone but I have ammo boxes that I strap to the top when I need extra space. I also have 2 lights that came in handy this trip as it was easy to plug them in and set up camp before I got the electricity connected

@@SouthAfricanWanderer They are such opportunists! its crazy what they can can catch. okay cool! was curious, I'm thinking of putting load bars on my vehicle mainly just to be able to put my tent up there since its rather bulky. but just wanted to get an idea what one can look at doing with a roof rack on a camping trip. 😎

@@Golgrenful if you thinking of a roof top tent then it will certainly take the weight. It’s a front runner rack so they will have the necessary attachments for a roof top tent as well as the tents themselves. I looked as that as an option but it would hurt my already high fuel consumption and taking it down each morning before game drives was a hassle I didn’t want to deal with.

@@SouthAfricanWanderer i tried to the roof top tent approach... its nice but like you said the hassle in the morning is not worth it, especially space wise as a family its a challenge. Hence why id like to opt for a larger durable tent that can be carried on the roof. But thanks for the pointers, was very curious, have never transported much on the roof before 😅

Yes I offer trips to the park, I was just on one today in fact. Email me on southafricanwanderer@gmail.com and we can discuss

The building we were shooting on is an event/conference venue that’s privately owned and therefore we do not have access to the roof

So not while I have been hiking but there were reports of muggings on both table mountain and lions head last year. I think I mention in my table mountain video that it’s always advisable to hike in a group both from a hiking safety as well as personal safety point of view

I really struggled and should have perhaps have had a fan. The first two days stayed above 32 degrees at night then the third night I think there was some rain which helped a little

Ah that's great also feel free to drop any questions you may have as I may remember something more or different from what's in the videos. Yes very possible that you have met Prasheen at Kirstenbosch, he's always visiting there.

@@SouthAfricanWanderer You have some great birds there.Up at Pafuri we've tried for the Racket Tailed several times with no luck, but we did manage the Arnott's and Pennant-railed. Maybe the Bohm's from the bridge too, but not good enough view to be sure. We are planning another trip back, and came across your videos which have been very interesting.

I don't think there is a standard measure for the weight of the pies or any specific criteria to meet in terms of standards. What I have found is they vary from very small (3 or 4 bites) to extra large.

Yes the night safari is run by the Skukuza camp so you must go through to the camp reception in the park to book it and then the ranger/guide will come through to the hotel reception to pick you up

Glad you enjoyed it, there are 4 days still to come and I will edit and upload soon

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much Dr Phil!

Ah and a happy belated birthday to you as well Linden! I made a delayed trip to the Kgalagadi and a couple weeks ago and really enjoyed it as a birthday trip. Will be uploading videos soon!

Looking forward to that. Take care.

I’ve sent to PJ for a response. On the white eye, I see Merlin Birds has the southern yellow white eye and ebirds lists 3 white eye species, the last just listed as white eye species. I will double check Latin name and see if that’s the same as the southern yellow white eye

@@SouthAfricanWanderer Thank you kindly.

Glad you liked it!!

Yes I had one in there but it began leaking CO2 so I’ve decided to keep the single bottle to reduce points of failure from 3 to 1 and have just got a spare diffuser off Temu for like R100. Swap them in and out and clean the with biofilm off and let it dry out for a couple weeks. The bottles last me around 3 weeks each at the moment and the CO2 flow is pretty consistent with the mix I have now

I sometimes do that! Especially the shrimp who are very elusive

Thanks Mama

A pleasure and hopefully I’ll get out to the hide again sometime later this year

Thanks so much

Thank you so much 🙏🏼 Yeah I think with a lot of my hikes it’s more will power and pushing through to the end. Coming down is tough on the knees, glutes and hamstrings 😅

Yes I think having the 50MP on the A1 and the ability to crop is and important caveat. Similarly the A7R5.

Yeah 100% let’s hope Sony makes a mark 2 some time that has better performance since this one doesn’t have firmware updates

Yes there’s even a few we did not mention like the Firefinch app.

Thanks so much
