This is the lake at the Game Haven Park I visited on my
2nd day in Malawi. There were
no animals at the lake however 3 new birds for me. Most of the birds I saw in Malawi and South Africa were LIFERS. It was very peaceful looking. I am linking this post with WEEKEND REFLECTIONS.

I hope you enjoyed this post.
Thank you for visiting.
Many thanks for all your comments.
Water, still or moving, always soothes my soul. And I adore the reflections too.
ReplyDeleteA pretty lake with such a varity of vegetation around it, including that pretty lush grass. Beautiful reflections, looks like a nice, quiet spot for perhaps a picnic!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the ponds they build for watering golf courses but at least it has the advantage of Kingfishers and Cormorants. There must be fish for them.
ReplyDeletelovely grasslands around the lake.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing the birds around the reflections. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWell when going to somewhere as exotic as Malawai new birds are bound to happen Margaret. The Pied Kingfishere is a beauty.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures Margaret.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the structure with the two drums/barrels?
