This was one of the Sun Destinations properties I visited in 2024.
The camp recently underwent major renovations that have taken the property from great to beyond excellent!
My perspective on some of the changes that I experienced during a recent short stay: https://travelandthings.co.za/2024/08/nambu-camp-revisited/
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words.
If that is to be believed, I have just saved myself from writing 8000 words!
This post is an image only look at some of the game sightings during a recent visit to Nambu Camp.
Can you identify these tracks?
For those who said “leopard”, you are correct. And if you recognised that there are drag marks, you can pat yourselves on the back. Well done.
It is still an adrenaline rush for me to know that this lone apex predator was close by, although we did not get to see it.
A rare sighting…an African wild cat at sunset.
Hippo doing what hippos do…nothing!
This weir just caught my attention.
No hidden animals to look for in this image.
Sitting and watching this, made me wax poetic:
The Weir’s Whisper
Beneath the South African sun’s soft gleam,
The weir breaks the river’s shimmering seam.
Its gentle roar, a constant hymn,
A melody carved where waters brim.
Sitting alone on the grassy bank,
Breath slows, heart fills, thoughts go blank.
The rush of the water, steady and true,
Washes my soul in its endless hue.
It whispers of journeys, of time unbroken,
Of secrets, the river has softly spoken.
Of rains that danced on faraway hills,
And droughts that tested its ancient will.
Here at the weir, the world feels small,
Yet vast in its rhythm, its endless call.
A place to ponder, to lose, to find,
The currents untangle the knots of the mind.
For in the weir’s song, there’s solace and grace,
A quiet connection to time and place.
A reminder that life, like the river’s flow,
Pauses briefly, but onward must go.
Kudu in the late afternoon sun.
Personally, I don’t think we give these magnificent antelope the respect they deserve,
Another glorious African sunset…
