Field Notes

Description:

We were on a early morning game drive, enjoying the cool winter, when the ranger heard on the radio about a lion spotted nearby. When we arrived on the spot, there was already 2 cars, which is the limit allowed near wild animals in the Madikwe Game Reserve. So the ranger drove back, stop on the bank of a river and then said: "in 5 minutes, the lion is here to drink". He was right and he obviously knew the lion habits. The 4 minutes 30 secondes we waited worth it!
