Our first official morning in the bush at @bayalaprivatesafarilodge gave us the official 'pinch me' moment. Waking up to the sounds of the bush and heading off on a game drive where you give yourself full permission to sink into where you are, breathe in the fresh morning air, and say "I can't believe I am finally here!"

🩵 Such a full heart and so much excitement for what else is still to come on the road ahead!

Our itineraries are filled with big plans, incredi Our itineraries are filled with big plans, incredible places and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. But when all is said and done, it’s often the little moments in between that we look back on and realise just how special they were.

Funny how the smallest things can become some of the best memories. 💙

Today on International Vulture Awareness Day, we’r Today on International Vulture Awareness Day, we’re celebrating the incredible birds that have completely captured our hearts. 🫶🏼

Our love and appreciation for vultures has grown through the time we’ve been privileged to spend in the field with the incredible EWT Birds of Prey team. Their knowledge, passion and dedication are infectious, and every day spent alongside them leaves us with a deeper understanding of just how beautiful and important these birds are.

With many of our vulture species facing a critical fight for survival, it’s a privilege to support this work through our expeditions and play a small part in their conservation.

🩵 So today, a big shout-out to the vultures, and to the remarkable people working tirelessly to protect them!

🫶Some moments deserve a revisit. This World Elepha 🫶Some moments deserve a revisit. This World Elephant Day, we’re throwing it back to one of the most extraordinary days in Blue Sky Society Trust history.

On 8 August 2020, while much of the world was in lockdown, we joined our long-time conservation partners, Elephants Alive, in Hoedspruit for a world-first: a virtual elephant collaring! 👏

With travel at a standstill, we found a way to bring the bush to elephant lovers around the world. Around 250 to 300 people tuned in live to watch the collaring operation unfold from their homes, while Painted Dog TV quite literally made a plan in the middle of the bushveld to get the signal out! 

The result? An incredible R260,000 raised, enough to fund two elephant collars and support the vital research that helps conservationists better understand and protect these giants.

We’ve worked alongside Elephants Alive since 2016, and looking back at this day reminds us just how much can be achieved when passionate people, conservation expertise and a slightly crazy idea come together.

Six years later, we remain incredibly proud of this one and grateful to all the people across the globe who supported us! 

Happy World Elephant Day to the giants who have given us some of our greatest adventures, taught us so much and continue to give us every reason to keep showing up for their future.🐘

All collaring operations are carried out by experienced wildlife veterinarians and conservation professionals, with the safety and welfare of the elephants as the highest priority.

🫶🏼 Today not only marks Women's Day, it also marks 🫶🏼 Today not only marks Women's Day, it also marks 10 years since we set off on our very first expedition! 

Since then, we have traveled countless roads, visited breathtaking places, met incredible people and organisation's along the way, and welcomed new crew and returning faces year after year. 

While the scenery may change, and our tribe of women has grown, the purpose has always stayed the same. But without these amazing women, none of it would be possible. So today, I honor all of these incredibly beautiful souls, who have stepped into my life path, taught me more than I could ever imagine, and have given me so many chapters of wild and wonderful adventures traveling through Mama Africa. 

From the women in my crew, to the women on the ground, pouring thier hearts and souls into protecting our wild spaces and wildlife, I am eternally grateful for you all! 🫶🏼

🩵 Happy Women's Day!

Today, on World Ranger Day, we honour the men, wom Today, on World Ranger Day, we honour the men, women and four legged furries, who dedicate their lives to protecting the world's wild places. 

This year's theme, "Rangers: Guardians of a Changing Planet," marks 20 years of World Ranger Day and recognises the extraordinary role rangers play as they face the growing challenges of climate change, biodiversity loss, human wildlife conflict and wildlife crime.

Many of the most unforgettable moments on our expeditions have been made possible because of the knowledge, commitment and generosity of the rangers who have welcomed us into their world. Their work often goes unseen, yet it is fundamental to the future of conservation.

We are incredibly proud to support ranger led conservation wherever we can, whether through partnerships, field experiences or by helping share the stories of those working tirelessly on the front lines.

🩵 To every ranger, thank you for your courage, your dedication and your unwavering commitment to protecting the natural world.

🪶 What would an expedition be without a day in the 🪶 What would an expedition be without a day in the field with the EWT Birds of Prey Team?

Every visit is one we look forward to, and this year was no exception. While in Karingani in Mozambique, we were fortunate enough to assist with a vulture trapping operation, giving the group a rare opportunity to experience conservation in action.

It was a successful day, with five White-backed Vultures and one Hooded Vulture safely processed. Everyone rolled up their sleeves to help fit tracking devices, or "backpacks" as we like to call them, and attach identification rings before each bird was released back into the wild.

There is something incredibly special about being so close to these magnificent birds and witnessing the dedication, precision and care that goes into protecting them. It is an experience that never loses its magic, and one I always love sharing with the women who join our expeditions.

🫶🏼 A huge thank you to @ewt_birdsofprey for welcoming us back once again. We are incredibly proud to support the vital work you do, and this day remains one of the absolute highlights of every itinerary.
