South Africa 2005

In February 2005 we visited South Africa - we did a circuit starting in Joburg down to Wakkerstrom then Sani Pass(Lesotho) across to the coast to Saint Lucia on to Mkhuzi NP and then through Swaziland to Kruger NP. The photos are pre digital SLR and were taken on a compact Panasonic and the occasional digiscoping so in other words not that good!
Back in April I showed you my favourite ever photo Wayne has taken, well this is my favourite photo which I have taken - it's a Lilac-breasted Roller
