Not sure about the Eagle either Lai, they did'nt do a close up. Some Velvet Monkeys came down for a drink this afternoon, they were really nervouse, and on the lookout for danger, so they did'nt stay long

After checking google, I think the Eagle may be the African Fish Eagle.

Great captures from this morning WS Wildcam Africa - Pete's Pond - Page 5 768480

just had a look in and got a real shock affraid

instead of our usual crowd there were two...........................dogs that came for a swim.The focus wasn't brilliant on them but they really had a good few minutes.

Any ideas for names incase they show up again WS scratch

**whitestarling** Thu Sep 08, 2011 6:45 pm

How unusual LW, never seen Dogs before. Think I'll leave the names up for options

WS

**littlewid** Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:32 pm

No problem WS. I was surprised to see them too but they did have a few minutes fun just a shame the focus was not good, it was a bit off when they were both in the pond, hence no pictures of them playing about.

**whitestarling** Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:45 pm

I did think of Ana & Toly, but I dont think they have Anatoly Guard Dogs there, to keep the predators away from livestock, but not bad names though
WS

**littlewid** Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:57 pm

Good names WS cheers

I was trying to think of something appropriate but was failing. Not sure if they do have dogs to protect their livestock but they must belong to someone as they looked very healthy but there wasn't anyone around.

Ana & Toley it is I reckon wagging tail

So forgive me if I miss any.

I'm wondering if they have changed the clocks in South Africa, it's much darker than yesterday and they are focusing on the sunset. Lots of animal sounds but no animals to see.

Hmmmm could be LW. I'll have to check that out, as soon as I get time
WS

**littlewid** Sat Sep 10, 2011 9:22 am

Been looking out for some of our friends this morning but no-one around but these two were having a nice long drink together Very Happy

I haven't been able to find out if the time has changed over their WS but will try and see if I can find anything later as well.

Safari Maiden Sat Sep 10, 2011 2:29 pm

Lovely sunsets LW. Have we given these two names yet?

I check the internet and there are no time changes.

SM

**littlewid** Sat Sep 10, 2011 4:18 pm

No names as yet SM. They were in a rather large herd but it was only these two that were drinking then they all wandered off together. WS is good at picking names so he may come up with some unless anyone else has any ideas.
