Getting back to the office was an eye opener! Made me realise how much I want my B & B - how much I want to sit quietly in the evenings and listen to that ultimate call of Africa - the voice of the Fish Eagle.
Taken by P on our trip to the Kruger National Park
Our holiday is a faint memory now, but I will be sharing some of our sights over the next few days. I wish I could share the sound of this magnificent bird. There is NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING nicer than sitting on the banks of a quiet river at sunset, watching a small group of waterbuck grazing on the sweet grass, when out of the blue, the sound echo's. It's synonymous with the sound of Africa - it sounds something like the American Bald Eagle and I love it! For me it symbolises the peace of the African Bush, the tranquility and pure nature!
What I would give to hear that sound ... right now!

I am trying to imagine...
You have actually sat at the banks of a river like that? AMAZING!!
So glad you are back and well.
Welcome back...
It's special, isnt' it?! But I have to admit I have never been to Kruger Park .. we've been to other game parks instead .. there's nothing better than the African bushveld!
I had the call of the Fish Eagle as the ring tone on my photo for a while. It truely is an awesome sound.
This post makes me want my summer back! :)
