Brent Leo- presenting with Jeandré Gerding on camera.
Sam,
Sam says good morning with a
large breeding herd of buffalo.
Brent,
Says
good chilly morning, intro, moving at a snail pace down the southern boundary
looking a tracks of Queen Karula and her cubs if no signs he will head over to
Cheetah plains.
Sam,
Elephants
Sam
re-does him morning introduction, with elephants in the back ground. A Stork
flys in and a young ellie trumpets and charges to chase it off before we even
get to see it.
A young
ellie lies and after a bit another or maybe the same one lies down again and
another tries to sit on it. I love it when they get silly like that.
Brent,
While headed east towards Cheetah
plains Brent has found fresh male leopard tracks, so for now he is going to
track him rather then head over to cheetah plains just yet.
Sam,
Saddle-billed stork that the
elephants chased off well at least the same kind, it is behind some tree or
bush trunks but we can see it quite well. It's eating or picking in the mud
wallow for food.
Back to the breeding herd of
buffalo most of them lying down chewing the cud

But
his signal cuts out and since James is helping get Sam back up and running we
go to tech loop.
He's
back
Darn
black screen again
Sam,
We go to Sam with Connor and
James and Kirsten from FC who have come to rescue him. We get to watch all the
mechanics and whatnot while Connor replaces the battery, since Brent has no
signal. Of course since James is there his commentary keeps us entertained.

male giraffe across from him, and a large breeding herd of buffalo herd moving
out of the water.

flying with some sighting of them off and on.
08:34 There is a hippo in the water with a large and
a small terrapin on its back.
08:37 Red-billed hornbill doing its dance call.

Sam

Brent on Cheetah plains
Brent
has not found much today on Cheetah plains but everywhere will have days where
the animals just don’t feel like being on camera.
Brent says
his goodbyes for the morning at the original Djuma waterhole on Cheetah plains.
