Pilanesberg National Park





Saturday afternoon I took a drive to Pilanesberg National Park. The park is about 50 km north of Rustenburg. It hosts a large variety of game, including the big 5, as well as cheetah, hyena, the rare sable antelope as well as hippo. I spent a day and a half in the park. I found the park attractive with the scenic landscape and the hills all around. I have captured some stunning pictures of zebra and blue wildebeest here. These are two species which have previously eluded me in other parks. I have also managed to get one shot of a herd of springbok, which unfortunately took off right there after. I once again realize that a larger lens is a must when shooting wild animals.
