Day 5 , August 12
4am wake up after getting ready I sat at the dinning table and had a nice cup of robois tea while we waited to leave.
The plan for day 5 is to drive about and hour to the south west and look for suni
We arrived around 7am collected our local farm hand France who knows where the suni are and headed off within minutes we were seeing game two red duiker scurried off the road and into the bush than we turned a corner and had 3 red duiker in the road and as the morning went on we would continue to see more red and grey duiker along with Nyala. We stopped in a spot France said he had seen a big suni and took a walk, no luck so we got back to the truck and continued to roll the tires. We drove around and made a circled back to this area we walked and as we drove past two suni darted off the side of the road we kept driving a ways past them, then got out and walked back Matt got a few glimpses of one but could never tell if it was a male or a female as it fed around in the very thick brush. We spent some time waiting and slowly. Walking into the brush to try and see the suni but no luck it was like walking on cornflakes. We got back in the truck and continued to drive around looking, we decided at noon we needed a break so went back to the lodge on this farm to eat the lunch we had packed with us of sandwiches a boiled egg and some small sausages.
Some weather moved in and it was windy and looked like it could rain. The afternoon didn’t produce any suni but we continued to see many red and grey duiker as well as Nyala we ended the day with a great meal again back at camp.
