This time last week we were passing through #swaziland's beautiful @biggameparks on the #RhinoFacts Tour, funded by #ComanisFoundation. These three #conservation spaces are about so much more than the #big5, and this is why I love visiting this tiny #kingdom. In #Mlilwane, you can #trailrun and #mountainbike to your heart's content (as long as you dodge the #hippo and crocs). #Hlane delivers on an #African #wildlife experience, while #mkhaya is home to a whole selection of #endangeredspecies. Together, they offer one of the subcontinent's top #ecotravel options. #pentax #tomtom #africa #travel (at Swaziland)

Another #RhinoFact from our #media trip to gather information on #rhino #conservation: did you know that it costs R6000 per month per calf per week for the milk formula? We met these two boisterous youngsters at #mkhaya, one of #swaziland's gorgeous #BigGameParks, where they are being cared for by the legendary Reilly family, long time #nature custodians here in the #kingdom. Huge thanks must once again go to the #ComanisFoundation and their tireless founder, Corinne Itten, for funding the #RhinoFacts mission. #pentax #ecotravel #natureconservation (at Mkhaya Game Reserve)

Finding a moment of utter tranquillity on the plains of #Mlilwane, one of #swaziland's @biggameparks, while shooting #longexposure #startrails last night. We are on Day 3 of the #ComanisFoundation #RhinoFacts Trip, en route to #mkhaya to hopefully see some #blackrhino. The Swazi Parks stand testimony to the life work of Ted Reilly, a man who singlehandedly made #conservation history here on the southern #African subcontinent. #Pentax #3leggedthing #ricohimaging #rhino #travel

Next #adventure... A week with wild #rhinos in #northwestprovince, #swaziland and #mfolozi, finding out more about these amazing #megamammals, and how to ensure their future. Thanks to the #ComanisFoundation, #ezemvelokznwildlife, @biggameparks and other #conservation organisations who are making this possible. #sonyxperia #Xperia #pentax #peakdesign #photogadgets_sa (at Cape Town International Airport)
