    Those shots of the pans with water on them was just incredible. Great videography. I watched part 2 before this and it was also awesome. Keep them coming.

    The flamingos presumably arriving to breed on the newly flooded pans..

    • @AndrewSenior
      @AndrewSenior  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, I believe that Sua Pan is one of only a handful of breeding spots for them in Southern Africa and they’re present after the summer rains when the water level in the pans is a bit lower.

      Die videos /fotografie en beskrywing is mooi. Kan sien julle het ordentlike kamera toerusting ens. Julle musiek keuse is glad nie sleg nie maar op aarde julle klank is meestal terrible.
      Wanneer julle praat is dit so sag en dan skielik oordonder die musiek jou. As julle dit kan uitsorteer sal julle videos n plesier wees om na te kyk. Op die oomblik maak dit dit nogals lastig.

    Aaagh!! Kubu has lost its magic. For years isolated and unknown. We were told about it by a shopeeper in Mahalapye. Told us..Go through Serowe take the track past Pres Kahama's house, will eventually hit a t junction with another track ...head north, eventually cross a track going to the De Beers diamond camp at Orapa. Go that way. At Orapa a track north will bring us to Mmatsumo village. Head on north on track to Thabatshukudu...follow tracks. Will find Khubu. Which we did. Camped in baobabs overlooking pan then headed north to Nata for a cold beer at the bar and then to Maun on the f awful road which by then was still little more than a sand track. Always camped on river at Maun at the croc pool next to the bridge. The old rock and log affair across the river. The pool was wonderfully refreshing
