And last but not least for the pictures of South Africa 2013....
Over the past 20 years we've been on Safari almost every year and we have seen a huge number of different animals.
One of the species to allude us was the Pangolin - so it was a fantastic surprise to encounter one this time in Sabi Sands near Nottens Bush Camp.
A measure of how special a sighting this was is that when we saw it all the guides in the vehicles that came to see it were getting their cameras out. For more info on these fantastic creatures African Wildlife Foundation - Pangolin info.
A very special moment.
(Now just the Aardvark has to be spotted.................... next time we hope).

Honey Badger
I just love the Honey Badger - an animal so packed with attitude you can almost feel it's aggression and willingness to take anything on. We saw this little ripper near Umlani.
