A Night Drive in the Kruger Park by Barbara Erasmus
South Africa: The sun is fading and the trees are etched against the sky. A grey loeri calls its familiar cry as a discord of hadedahs flies overhead in formation. The stars came out to stud the sky like glow-worms. We’re silent and excited as we pass shadows that translate into rhino or eland. The spotlight picks out a silent owl, motionless on a gnarled branch. Barbara Erasmus
