**At this point I had to leave, and when I went back to watch what I missed on archives there was something wrong and there are no archives from 17:12 on. So as I can watch what I missed on other viewers recordings I won't have the exact archives time. **

James,

• Woodland Kingfisher

• James sees a genet but it runs off to fast for us to see it.

Brent, 

•  Found the Nkuhuma lioness

James, arrives at the sighting and we go back and forth between the two vehicle while viewing the lions.  It appears they maybe hunting 

A couple minutes before the end of drive we leave the lions and let them continue to hunt.

Good bye for the evening
