    Recently we were in Pilanesberg and we saw the big five in 3 hours. Those fires were a blessing in disguise and we loved all the sightings very much. It makes you not think about the hustle and bustle in the city.

    as a local to the pilanesberg, those fires, as unfortunate as they were, provided some of the best game viewing in years. Great footage.

      I must say, I agree it was beautiful in the months after those fires. Thanks for watching!

    I’ve been to Fallasburg it was beautiful. I got a photo of a young male leopard at about 20 feet amongst other wildlife.

    Great video Byron and wow what a close call with that big bull…/good thing he just wanted to wipe off a bit of mud and not more 👍. Congrats on the mating lions that’s always a treat and your rhino footage….takes me back to the glory days in Kruger when there was a rhino seemingly around every bend in the South.
    Awesome video….can’t wait to see what you are up to next.

    • @WildWildJourneys

      Thanks Joe! Yup, very lucky he was gentle while I started up… the lions were big highlight and the rhinos on that short grass was a privilege 👌🏼 thanks again for watching

    Another super video, Byron - great music, well-paced, just all-round lekkerness 🙌🏻😁 Loving Crunchie’s ‘reactions’ as well 😂 Glad that ellie didn’t roll you down a hill 🙈

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Villiers! Crunchie was just speechless 😂 got quite lucky with the ellie… looks like you’re having an epic trip already, I’m a little envious!

      @@WildWildJourneys, I’ve only been here for one day and I’ve been on a roller-coaster! The heat, the drought, video bs photos (as you know 😣), 100-500 vs 600, nothing to see for hours then an hour with a cheetah! Nuts, I tell you 🥜🥜🥜

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Sounds like it’s all making for a good story already! Looking forward to seeing what you can create with that awesome gear 💯 enjoy 🐾

    Another AWESOME episode Byron, the way you tell the story of the African bush is next level💥Crunchie doesnt seem to be quite the talker...as for the ellie bull, I will leave that with the elpehant whispers but thanks for sharing the good and the bad, which a lot of social media doesnt do and luckily it could have been much worse and well done on how you handeled it, a lot of people I knoe would have called a trip after something like that.

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks a ton, Christiaan! Crunchie was just speechless with the whole experience… yup, gotta keep it real and learn from it. Super lucky the car hardly got damaged and it didn’t escalate into something hectic. Still was definitely a bit shaken up though 😂

    Another brilliant video. I am glad you struggle with prioritising photos vs videos. I know I’m going to struggle with that a lot now I’m wanting to do more video! Keep up the great work, and great sightings!

    • @WildWildJourneys

    Do they still have Wild dogs at Pilansberg. I had timeshare at Bakubung many years ago. And they released about 7 to 8 Wild Dogs. We witnessed their release. We sold Timeshare because it was in December and the units never had aircons and we also found if at night you want keep windows open no screens on windows. We have Time share at Burchels Bush lodge in May and Ngwenya in September and January.

    • @WildWildJourneys
      @WildWildJourneys  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately not for at least 3 or 4 years. That must’ve been amazing to see their release. I do know they were beginning to have problems with them finding their way out of the park and entering the surrounding communities. Sounds like a good call to sell that timeshare considering the heat! Glad you at least have some other great places to still visit 💯
