Not my first choice for a place to visit, but as it's aim is Conservation and the visit was my hosts idea, I went along and was pleasantly surprised. They'd said there was no guarantee we'd see all or even many of the animals, but we were lucky and saw all of the targets I'd hoped to see, helped by Moira the chief spotter, and accidental commentary from Richard! I probably could spend a whole day there with different cameras trying to photograph everything possible. On this visit, it was showery and I only had my Nikon P1000, (the battery failed too soon) but despite often poor light in rain, it did a surprising job.
