Pictures were extracted from the video. Video was taken by Roy Vincent. We have been hunting together for over 40 years. | |||

you boys could use some traction boards for the land cruisers... good pics...amazing in the old days you had to win a 'best caption' contest (which I did) to see the pics when they were delivered on DVD... | |||

Yes. We have everything on video. And we had a trail camera at the bait. Which actually captured a few seconds of our approach. But from far away! This is the second lion charge we have experienced. 20 years ago we got charged by a lioness after we shot a lion. She was a bit closer than this one. A few years ago a lion attacked our blind. Tearing holes in it while we were inside in total darkness Part of hunting . | |||

Saeed, are those six Dugga Boys the Camp Buffalo? When I was there a month ago, we had eight Dugga Boys hanging around camp regularly. Sometimes they were in the riverbed, right in front of our tents. Are these the same bulls? | |||

The six buffalo were a few kilometers from camp. We are using the DJI MAVIC 3 PRO drone. It has 1x,3x and 7x cameras. Went to the lake trying to shoot a hippo as bait for a croc. And despite walking long distances along the lake shores, we were not successful. Shot a wildebeest on the way back. Tony shot a buffalo. Maktoum shot a reedbuck with his bow. | |||

Really enjoying the photos. Keep ‘em coming! I always try to learn how to take better pictures by studying yours. Is elephant on the license? | |||

That Blue is simply amazing!!! Great report as always Saeed, thank you for the effort to do this for "the rest of us". Amazing footage - I truly hope you post up the lion charge. Regards, Robert ****************************** H4350! It stays crunchy in milk longer! | |||

Great photos of the big reedbucks you caught as they were just calmly standing there. I also love the photo of the dagga boys all standing still and clocking the drone. Talk about busted! Yet they remained calm. It seems like the hunting party have all dialed in on the wildebeest! IMHO, the Nyasa subspecies is the only beautiful wildebeest. I love the blueish-gray and black brindling and that pure white chevron! Great photos all around, Saeed, as usual! Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

We think it is 6. We got rained on today No one managed any hunting. | |||

Good number Saeed. | |||

With the numbers of crocs in the lake, retrieving the hippo had to be a scary proposition. I imagine Robert & Nyoni were rather puckered when the water got over knee deep. | |||

Interesting to see that within a few minutes, between 0431-0437, the temperature rose by 4oC!
I was thinking the same. I would be very loath to venture into those waters. "Early in the morning, at break of day, in all the freshness and dawn of one's strength, to read a book - I call that vicious!"- Friedrich Nietzsche | |||

Enjoying the posts, photos and the hunt no lack of dagga boys it seems. Frederik Cocquyt I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good. | |||
