    There were some very obliging Yellow Bill Hornbills in this. Absolutely wonderful and delightful to watch.... Did anyone tell those Stick Insects that a Land Cruiser isn’t a fridge. And they aren’t fridge magnets?........ ⚛️☮️ 💚🐾 🌏

    I watch each episode twice: The first time is as it debuts, and my wife & I watch together on Roku TV. I follow the live comments on my phone and read aloud the funny/interesting ones. We also discuss what’s onscreen. Later, I watch the archived video again, as there’s always some detail I miss due to reading the chat & talking with my wife during the first viewing. We both enjoy this series, as well as James & Kirsty’s other adventures.

    Been to Africa 3 times and that's the first time I've seen baobabs in full leaf. I actually thought they always looked like they were upside down. You climbing it gave some scale to the size of these incredible trees. I came across one in Zambia that had a hollow in the trunk that contained a toilet and wash hand basin.

    James, I've enjoyed your talents since first meeting you on Safari Live. I liked that the animals you encountered were named. I saw birds I've not heard of before. Of course, meeting the woman beside the man, Kirsten, was definitely a plus. I look forward to your next video. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I hope you include a baobab every day, they are so magnificent and I doubt James missed a chance to climb them! Kirsty, you are a fantastic editor! Loved the hornbill right next to you. Thanks for identifying the birds some were new. I hope you two go back when it's dry. Thank you as always for the entertainment and education. Can't wait for Ep 3! Also the Irish concert tomorrow. You're spoiling us, please keep doing it!

    Frankly, not much to like. I don't know why you show this, unless it is to discourage people from coming, during the wet season. If yes, I believe you succeeded!
