Pilanesberg Game Reserve

A day at Pilanesberg Game Reserve

Hippo family, sunning their hides.
There was a lot of birdlife. I saw terapins swimming, and a baby crocodile in the reeds.

Elephants, giraffe, zebra, and the normal plethora of antelope, bushpigs, and the like scedaddled around.

There were much less animals to see than I remembered when I lived here in the mid 1980's, but it might be because of the good rainfall the past few months and the waterholes being full, as well as the bush being lush. Pilanesberg is quite a large reserve.

Where?

Pilanesberg near Rustenburg and right next to Sun City
North West Province of South Africa
