I saw only one minor crossing this time.

After much going to the waters edge and back, some wildebeest took the
plunge:

The river was swollen, the current strong, and wildebeest who drifted a bit
downstream struggled:

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, the whole herd waiting to cross turned
tail and fled:

But one predator came up trumps:

Comments and criticism, as always, welcome.

Cheers
