Shucks, I wanted to be different and say something else.
But I got a picture with even the branch in the background...
... from Houmoed. :lol:

If its not Houmoed then it must be Munro. I've got pics taken at this waterhole as well, but no name with the pics and I can't remember where exactly. :wall: :wall: All I know its along the Auob river before Auchterlonie. :think: My pic is very dusty with no grass.

I agree Urikaruus..... The waterhole alongside the road, not at the camp

WillemK,

Then I need to refresh my memory. :doh: Last visit was June 2010 so I'll sit out on this one, but luckily in 9 days time I'll drive over that dune just to make sure where Houmoed is. :dance: :dance: :dance:

Lovely shot by the way. :thumbs_up: Last time I nearly had this oppurtunity but decided to make a u-turn about 100- 200 m from Kij-Kij to be on time back at Kieliekrankie. Our neighbours drove past us I came back with lovely shots of leopard drinking. All we had was sleepy lion behind the bush. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
