Africam - fire?
 
Just went on and it looks like a pretty big fire - anyone else see it? No one at the Africam message board right now.

Yes I have been watching. There was a rain storm earlier today so I am not sure if it was set off by lighting or could be a controlled burn. There has been alot of voices and truck noises.

The Africam forum board is jammed so I can't get in to see if they know anything.

Carla - I got through - but most current postings aren't showing up yet.

Wonder what those animal noises were? Looks like the fire is tapering down some, before it was all the way over to the right side of the waterhole.

Fire? I thought those lights in the background were the lights from the lodge...

Carla,
The noises sounded like bushbabies to me.

Thanks DW. They were pretty loud for such little buggers :D

Definitely a fire, not lodge lights.

I believe the lodge is a good 45 degree to the left.
