    Thank you Richard for this lovely video you have made with so much love toward the animals and birds of the veld of the Great Kruger Park. I loved all the wildlife; from the little wildcat, the birds, the leopards, lions, snake, buffalo, redbuck, snake, baboons, serval, elephant, badger to the giraffe. Your photography is clear and lovely. Thank you for taking us on this wonderful trip.😄

    Young man, you are a very talented photographer and your comments are very relevant. We are South African and just love Kruger but live closer to Cape Town now so we don't get around to the Kruger National Park much now. Thank you for taking us there. Looooved this video and felt like we were there. Already subscribed and will certainly watch your videos many more times. Even much better than what SABC is offering currently. 🤩🤩🤩

    Richard, we lived in RSA, Eswatini and Mozambique for a period of about 30 years before retiring and returning to the USA. We made Kruger our only holiday destination from all three countries and totally love the place. We stumbled upon your videos and immediately fell in love with them. Your videos of Kruger make us feel like we are back there as we see so many of the places that we loved visiting, especially in the Satara area. Watching your videos as you cruise up the H1-4 brings back so many good memories. And we love the fact that you always give us the names of the birds that you see and film. We also like the quiet background music you add to your films. They add rather than distract from what we are seeing. Thank you so very much for your excellent work. We'll keep watching for any new videos you post.

    18:28. African Wild dogs or Hyenas? Stunning video. I felt like i was riding along. MANY THANKS!!!
    Saw hyena later on...Ok Wild dogs. Thanks for putting on screen animal names.... fun to i.d. them!
    All of the cats, and yes the male leopard was stunning. Interesting genealogy with video of his ancestor...
    Just an unbelievable trip with many animals sighted. Wonderful screenshots for me, too.
    Always been a dream to get to Eastern Africa for a photo safari. With a recorder for the sounds. They are magic to me... what a peaceful video...great editing, too!
    Just WOW!!! SIGH. ❤

    That Honey Badger with baby is just amazing. Also, to have 2 leopards just sit in the road like that, a dream. I don't go to Satara nearly often enough. I tend to go to Skukuza only. Definitely need to give Satara another try.

    Wonderful, thank you so much Richard. Your gentle commentary and superb cinematography are always such a treat. I like the very low key music. I would prefer no music at all to be able to enjoy the sounds of the bush but you have created a great balance. Thank you for labelling the birds. We are trying to learn them before our first Kruger trip next April!
    Favourite bit was the leopard slowly walking along the road in the mist and morning sun- Heaven! And the honey badger.

    Excellent video, and commentary. I appreciate the balanced enthusiasm for both animals and birds, it keeps the experience rich. It's uncanny how our family had a similar sighting (June 2024) of badger with baby (anyone willing to guess or ell us what a baby badger is termed?). I have been to Kruger as a child and adult and not yet seen a serval, so that was my favourite scene! I'm reminded what a additional dimensions video gives, over photos. Moving pictures with audio; feels like I was almost there, and hungry to visit the bush soon!

    Well done Richard. Beautiful sightings. I thought the tawny eagle and the elephant was special especially when I noticed the injury on his trunk and the water squirting out the side. The honey badger was special. I love the S147 and your leopard and small cats were also great. The burchells coucal sighting also showed its strong feet and toes that makes it such a successful predator.

    I loved the Honey Badger moving her pup's to a new home(I think).

    We absolutely take this gem for granted... I worked on projects inside the park and have some wonderful scary memories, that I will cherish...the post rain smell of the bush...adult elephants behaving like children in the dam...and walking into Buffalo...Maybe mention a few trees like the Jackle-berry...still the best sight is the leopard...great video thanks

    What eventful sightings you had. Thanks for taking us on the trip with you. It gave me such a yearning desire to be back in the Park again. Satara used to be my favourite camp but my daughter didn't like it and the rondawels weren't too clean, but now my favourite is Shingdwedzi. Thanks once again for the shared trip.

    • @RichardvanHaght
      @RichardvanHaght  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much for the great comment! Thank you for watching! The park is an unbelievable place, I am fortunate to be able to share these experiences! I love Shingwedzi and the Kanniedood road out the back gate! The sightings at Shing have never been up to the same standards as those which I have had at Satara. However I know that everyone has different experiences and that’s all part of it!
      Thanks again for watching and for the comment!

    We have been to KNP 25 times and my last bucket list is the 26th time. Satara is the best for cats,Olifants for beauty, Letaba for river viewing, Crocodile bridge for cats,monkeys. Elephants and rhino are my favourite. You had a wonderful trip.

    Thank you for the wonderful visit to Kruger, Richard. I have only been twice but had fantastic sightings both times. I we had a leopard crossing the road in front of us and then walking within a few feet of us, pausing to look at us and then continuing. We also had a close encounter with Duke, the old elephant with the huge tusks. BUT your sighting of the honey badger and cub was really awesome, as were your leopards, lions and multitudinous birds. Your editing is great and the music is quite relaxing.

  • @alisonpuggia1307

    Thank for this amazing video , Richard . Your voice is clear and easy on the ear . I thought your music was well chosen , relaxing and slightly soporific, but didn’t detract from the images . It’s hard to choose which sighting I enjoyed the most , but the leopard in the mist is a top contender . I loved the birds and the clear identification, and particularly enjoyed the close up of the African barred owlet calling . The civet was fantastic , and the honey badger with the pup also just incredible. We are going to KNP in November and will spend time at Olifants ( S147 every day I’m sure !) . We need to decide between Shingwedzi and Satara, this video might help me to make up my mind 😂

    • @RichardvanHaght
      @RichardvanHaght  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Absolutely Amazing, I landed in your channel by chance. I look after a 94 year old lady with Dementia, she enjoys videos about wildlife and nature. I was looking for something to watch and your channel pop out. She couldn't take her eyes off the screen the all time. I really enjoyed how relaxed the video was . I have Africa in my heart as I lived very close to the Cruger National Park for so many years. I wish you all the best for your channel and we will subscribe. Greetings from London.

    Always love the painted/hunting dogs. Amazed by the poor honey badger's poor pup being bounced about by its impatient (?) mother. The barred owlet call surprised me, sounding quite dove-like. Elephant squirting the raptor. Lots to delight.

      Only finished the video now, my favourite part was the smaller cats. a Serval in Kruger is still on my bucket list and the wild cat giving you a fright made dor a good laugh as your mind tends to play tricks on you in Kruger

    • @RichardvanHaght
      @RichardvanHaght  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks a lot for the comment! I was so lucky with the serval! Haha yes I'm sure darkness in the bushveld keeps everyone on their toes, even inside the camps! I can't imagine how an impala feels when the sun goes down.
