As soon as I see the connection between Kruger and the Egyptian Goose, I feel disappointed to pick up the binoculars and, instead of some African rarity, these completely ubiquitous geese. After all, if you only have about a week to visit Kruger, you hope to see some rarity. Hopefully I'll come back there someday again.

When you come back let us know I have a farm in Tzaneen and every year bird lovers come and stop and ask if they can look at wild birds

😊 that would be nice.
