izilwane – (wild) animal/s. Phinda game reserve started as Phinda Izilwane – ‘the return of the wild animals.’ We’ve been missing our monthly jaunts up to Zululand in this COVID lockdown time. Jessie asked yesterday ‘Dad, when can we go to Mfolosi again?’
One consolation: I have been added to the whatsapp groups that share sightings in Mkhuze and in Hluhluwe-Mfolosi reserves. Now the reserves are closed they’re sharing past pictures. Beautiful.

And I sent in some of mine taken over the years
