And drying on a giraffe with your friends. Cattle Egrets using public transport. I still think the idea is intriguing, but I have to admit that the potential range of buyers for such a book probably does not extend far from myself. Alone time. Taking a bath …. What a life. Kingfishers – the poor man`s Pittas? African Pygmy Kingfisher.

In the north of the reserve, by the Tadoba Lake, a herd of Chital Deer is grazing, with a familiar sight of Cattle Egrets around them. Next to them are White-breasted and Common Kingfishers , while Cattle Egrets are spread among both deer and pigs. Grey-headed Fish Eagle Copyright © Nitin Bhardwaj.

If you’ve ever imagined being surrounded by giraffes, up close (at least as close as is safe) and personal with elephants, or one night drive away from seeing notorious predators like leopards and jackals, this is the place for you. I recommend both, but either should net you Rock Pratincole , a cool falls specialty. Rock Pratincoles.

In the first full day, we have seen dozens each of giraffes, zebra, warthogs, elephants, 12 rhinos, 30 hippos, 3 Cape Buffalo, crocodiles, jackals, monkeys, baboons, literally a thousand impala, and at least 10 different antelope type animals. The mighty rhino along with the Cattle Egret.

Nowhere else in Africa do the preconceived ideas of the continent really exist in such living detail; tall, red-robed Maasai herding their skinny cattle, endless grasslands studded with flat-topped Acacia trees and grazed by herds of zebras and wildebeest, and dramatic volcanic calderas brimming with big game and fierce predators!

This is also why you very rarely find a photo of a giraffe on top of one of these posts – the other reason of course being that a giraffe photo would be relatively pointless in a birding blog. When Cattle Egrets go to the local discotheque, they tend to overdo their makeup a bit.
