Exeter: Morning Drive

The morning was off to a great start with these two, the brown snake eagle and the Wahlberg's eagle. This trip we also saw several Bateleur eagles, but didn't get any good pictures of them.







After the eagles it was all about this leopard! When we got there it was in a tree, but it did come down and we stayed with it for a bit. Then we went to the riverbed and saw these elephants looking dramatic on the sand. Crossing the river we saw our old friend the goliath heron keeping enough distance (apparently) from the croc. On the way from there was a herd of impala. Then we went to see these elephants having a drink, while some little bee-eaters hung out showing off for us. Then we couldn't go back to the lodge without a giraffe completing the experience!
