a mountain and an hours drive seperate the lush green region i live in from a semi desert landscape - we call it the Klein Karoo (klein means small)managed to score a 4 day long weekend and the opportunity to film springbok on a private property with permission.

Frankly i did not think i would even get close but these buck just dont seem to care about the drone.
They are very fast runners which would have been nice to be able to film but i did not want to scare them for the sake of exciting footage - was sufficiently happy they let me follow them around a bit - so that and some views of beautiful landsacpe is mostly what this clip is about.

Mate that is one hell of a good video, I love wildlife footage as this was right up my street. You need to get lions and biting type beasties, that would be awesome.

We're very much under the winter spell here, high winds and constant rain, but so far in good health and very much looking forward to warmer weather and flying again.

Awesome video! The closest I ever got to wildlife without them caring was a bunch of swans sitting in the fields. Other than that, the only "wild" life that cares about my drones so far are my dogs!

It is on our to do list next year, Miche is mad about wildlife and we have a two year old grandson who is fanatical about Lions, Elephants and those fellas with the long necks. So instead of a boring zoo we'll be heading to Africa.
