Rietvlei Nature Reserve–2014-11-09

After the weather was really gloomy the previous day, I decided to visit one of my favourite places in the Pretoria area, Rietvlei Nature Reserve. There are all kinds of wildlife in the reserve, and at R45 per adult for entry to the reserve, it is well worth the visit. Here are some photos from my visit on that day.
