We saw such a wide variety of wildlife on our slow five-hour drive north from Mopani Camp toward Pafuri in the Kruger National Park that I am sharing photos of that drive in parts. These photos were taken as we headed to a pit-stop at the Shingwedzi Restcamp. I also included a couple of pics taken at Shingwedzi.
I have added the names of the birds, animals and reptiles in the captions. Our favorite bird was definitely the Lilac-breasted Roller with all of its brightly colored feathers. We spotted them often enough that we started calling them LBR's.
