Sea Turtle Return ...

Following conservation news can be very depressing with so few success stories, but this one was a positive start to the day! Brings tears to the eyes watching the video, hearing the passion of the volunteers and seeing the transformation of the beach - Sea turtles return to Mumbai beach after 20-year absence

2018 Safari Trip to southern Africa

An exciting trip planned for April 2018 to southern Africa, and this time we will be joined by a friend Louise from Canada who has never visited that part of the world! Itinerary includes: 

• Wakkerstroom - a birding hotpsot,
• A wilderness walking safari in Hluhluwe-iMfolozi,
• A few days in the Royal Natal N.P. in the Drakensburg mountains,
• A night stopover at a game farm in the Waterberg district on the way to Botswana,
• Almost a week in the Limpopo-Lipadi Game Reserve in southern Botswana.

We will be a group of five for the Botswana portion of the trip as we will be joined by friends Sean & Carol. 

Looking forward to some great adventures together.

The part of Africa I miss most living in Canada is the bushveld areas - the sights, sounds and smells. Heather and I have been fortunate to be able to head back almost every two years.

I occasionally get to satisfy some of the craving by watching SafariLIVE , but that is just not the same as being there.

Stay tuned for updates and hopefully some great photos from the trip!
