Rita and Eric Bauer stayed with us for 3 nights, early on this month in March. They had a fabulous time, and they have emailed in some of their prettiest photos and permitted the publication of these. Many thanks, that’s super kind of them! It is a pleasure to share our guests’ photos here with our many fans and future guests, and I think they always reflect the (beautiful) reality here at the Vuyani Safari Lodge.
The weather was much better on Friday, and Uyai and Mike have managed some beautiful sightings.
They spotted rhinos from very close distance, which was amazing. We cannot disclose the location, of course, as this would make it obvious for poachers (but a warning to poachers: Our conservation team is patrolling on horseback, so it’s at your own risk and peril)
They were very relaxed, and our guests were able to spend quite a bit of time with these giants of the African bush. What a pleasure to spot these super-rare (and sadly endangered animals). We are one of a few reserves where their numbers are actually rising, so we are very pleased with this development.
We then also found the lions, same day! A lot of game has moved south of the reserve, as conditions are better there now than north, where lots of areas are still flooded. This suits us fine, as that is where we are focusing on now when out on safari.
But that’s not all we saw, far from it. We saw lots of “plains game”, which is always interesting. Here some photos of some of what we saw:
