![Iconic, but... Mana Pools, Zimbabwe [61 Days Overlanding Ep 5]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aL0Aaq3zkLA/mqdefault.jpg)
The one place that is not boring is Mana pools ! Each day offers something different. Heaven on earth ! Zimbabwe has a gem . It’s wild .. it’s natural, it’s beautiful ! It’s not Kruger so it’s not commercial . Let’s hope it stays this way !
Zambezi Beer on the Zambezi River, awesome cold beer.
One of the most amazing things about God’s given wildlife I love the most is the color of many birds. Some brilliant colors..beautiful! I mean seriously, beautiful bright blue and rich red, just beautiful!
The most amazing thing being - God doesn’t exist. Piece of sheer invention to suppress the weak and make the masses conform.
Thank you for another stunning reminder of home. Mana was and will always be my ‘happy place’ with some amazing memories from there.
Your sense of humour and story telling cracks me up, putting a smile on my face on a cold winters night in London!
Thank you for this amazing series, which I will definitely watch many times more in the future. Kind regards to all.
Really enjoyed this episode the funniest of the series so far
Very lovely footage. Thank you. What a special place - the first place we saw painted wolf pups!
Loved the quelea sequence - especially the music pairing!
Got to love it! This is classic James and his stories with his character voices. Thanks for the great views and for putting a smile on my face. Gloria 🐂
I just about died laughing when he told the story about the couple (from NY?) and the wife who thought she saw a snake chasing them, all in character and with special voices. I'll look for it, and if I find it I will come back and include a link.
FOUND IT!!

Carmine Bee Eaters cutting the air like minature dragons while dazzling the eyes with their brilliant colours are beautifully captured James, as is the totally satisfying *pfffffft glug gulp* sounds of a parched desert being refreshed!! Well deserved after a long day's adventuring 📷🐗🙈🐘++😊
Mercifully, the carmines do not breathe fire
God this video just felt like the good old days of SafariLive, miss James on there.
Me too. Those were the best of times. :^)
I thoroughly enjoyed this! Especially the comical ground horned bill
Poor Mr Johnston
Its really great that Kirsten found someone with knowledge of the wildlife and how to document it.He does a really great job.Thanks Kirsten,See ya tomorrow :)
They make a good team.
No, it's the other way around: James is the lucky one.

I love all but this is my favorite in this series! The baboon study was wonderful. Great job you two!!
Your Storytelling is mesmerizing.
The voice overs made me subscribe 🤣
Thank you James and Kirsten for another entertaining episode. The footage of the two species of bee eaters, love birds, queleas and ground hornbills are outstanding. As ex-Zimbabweans now living in New Zealand this series is wonderfully nostalgic and makes us determined to visit Mana Pools again in the not too distant future.
I am so enjoying this nostalgic trip to Mana Pools
Wow this is absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed this video ❤️😘
LOVED IT..MUCH LOVE FROM THE BITTERROOT VALLEY, MONTANA
Stunningly beautiful colourful birds! The Ellie walk by was special....Kirsten I love your choice of music, beautiful nature at its finest! Thank you for sharing your adventures, brightens my day living in the city! Love & Blessings to you both xxx
Loved it!👍🏻❤️
I so very relate to the mum at 5:14 with a child always following and underfoot.
Oh, Mr. Hendry - a perfect example of why we are blessed to see the world in color....the birds were stunning ! And of course - so too was your narration - "colorful"....lol
wonderful, so many animals in one shot, Ellie, baboon, warthog and impala #23675
James..I would do the same thing..give them voices...too fun.
Excellent!
Beautiful video. Bee eaters are spectacular . Loved the thirsty young baboon nagging his mom!
weeebaba!..
Watching from Athens, Tennessee, USA👍
Clarksville tn here!
Absolutely stunning. Heaven right here on earth.
Wow, the bird life is incredible. Cool to see your brief interaction with the young male elephant too. The baboons as always are hilarious. Thank you for sharing these gorgeous shots.
loved Mr. mid-ranking`s curly „do“ on his neck!
Missed one, 7,385 😂. Mesmerizing in flight!
Beautifully done video with all my favorites especially the elephants, baboons, warthog, and gorgeous birds. Thank you!
Thanks for the vid its a good one
And the birds were spectacular!!! Thanks!!!
I always love watching your episodes, James and Kirsten. James your stories and character voices marvelous. Thank you.
James you are truly al gift to the world !
Thank you so much and Please keep the entertainment coming 🙏❤️
Love the visuals.... love the humour. How my heart aches for home.
See ya next time,Thanks James,Kirsten and crew.PS give the wildlife a thanks for their participation too :)
I just Love your voice overs. Beautiful birds and that baboon little one I just wanted to smack it upside the head...just kidding. Thanks James and Kirsten for another grand time.
A delight to watch this next episode. Stunning photography and humourous storytelling.
Hello beautiful people James and Kirsten ❣️...the story telling is utterly spectacular!!! 🤣
Spectacular!!…the birds were awesome to see, especially the brightly colored ones, the red with beautiful turquoise…..…loved the music you chose for those tiny birds, which was thousands of them flitting around, music fit so well…and of course, enjoyed your voice overs for the hornbills…thank you & your beautiful wife for sharing these adventures with us…it’s something I will never get to experience in my lifetime, so keep them coming, please…hugs to you both!
Yes the weather may be foul but as for the "A lot of wind ". When you have a lot of baa boons eating copious amounts of wild figs, well yes you will get a lot of wind !! It just comes with the territory. Tony and Byron may both be slow learners, but that could be because they were schooled in South Joburg and Uitenhage respectively. However both have exquisite taste when it comes to beersies. Castle Lager only.
The flock of birds moving across the land remind me of Robins migrating thru my area when i was much younger.They are all but gone these days
Thanks Kirsten and James - another Saturday evening treat! Loved it.
Much enjoyment as always, miss seeing an occasional glimpse of Kirsten. Do enjoy her little quips now and then. You two are a great team!
As ever excellent! You so remind me of Johnny Morris
No ice. No snow…..
As a former teacher Tony and Mr Johnston brought up,memories, lol.
Likewise!
Great video . Both of us really enjoyed it and Shay really enjoyed the monkeys .
Amazing! Thank you for sharing this spectacular place with us.
Thank you for watching!
HI JAMES+KIRSTEN
I ENJOY YOUR CHANNEL
SO MUCH . I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO EACH NEW EPISODE.
JAMES WHEN I WAS WATCHING
WILDEARTH( SAFARILIVE) U WERE
ALWAYS MY FAVORITE PERSON TO
SEE. I GUESS SOME PEOPLE R
UNBEATABLE/ DIFFICULT TO BEAT ,
DIFFICULT TO COMPETE AGAINST.
Such a very beautiful place…
It really is!
Thank you so much for another episode of the Kirsten and James adventures. Poor Jeremiah, the baboon not the bullfrog. He and Barry the Baboon need to try to be friends. The baby baboon was so funny. Thanks again…blessings.
James, I was reminded of Robert Sapolsky as you commented on stress hormone in hierarchy of baboons. Surely you must be familiar with his work. Have you read "A Primates Memoir"?
Thats precisely where the info comes from. What a great book!
You`re such a good storyteller, James, love it.
How awesome, Ellie, warthog. Impala & baboon all in one view .. how absolutely wonderful .. now that’s a holiday 😃😃..
I really appreciate you taking the time to share ☺️

My teacher Mr Hornbill had the same problem with me :)
We all had a Mr Johnstone
The baboons at Mana Pools seem much skinnier than the ones in Sabi Sands and other areas we have watched.
Interesting, possibly during the dry season
Miss your humor James, love your stories. :)
Glad you like them!
Thanks for a such great content 👌👌
Great episode!
Another wonderful episode! Loved Byron the eland and all the Staceys, good one Kirsten. Carmine bee-eaters are fast becoming my favorite bird. (those were carmine bee-eaters weren't they?) James, your voicing of the ground hornbills was too funny. And the young elephant so close must have been very special. Then there were the baboons. If you run out of material (like that will ever happen!) you could do a whole episode of just baboons! For just a moment I was concerned about your camera burning up but since you weren't concerned I took a second look and realized the fire wasn't that close. Thank you both for this wonderful series of what looks like the most fabulous place. Just one request, more Kirsten!
They certainly were carmine bea eaters
Can imagine a baboon beating 😆
Fabulous work as always! Those bee-eaters are the prettiest birds in my opinion, prettier than the rollers even. Are they white-fronted, or rosy, I can't identify birds well.
White fronted and Carmine
Thank you for another informative and fun video, James & Kirsten. The diversity of animals you were able to catch that were side by side is amazing.
Can you, or someone in this thread, tell me what those beautiful red w/blue birds are at the 9:57 mark?
Carmine Bee Eaters
@@ca_rusty Lovely thank you so much
Just a quick question about the baboon eating the figs: the figs all look alike - I`m assuming they`re not ripe?, however the baboon is picky which one to pick, picks it, takes one bite and throws it away - his reasoning? Thanks!
They're not alike, so they pick the ripest ones. They're also very wasteful
I get impression that Mana is prettier than Hwange. Am I correct. I haven't been to Mana yet
Why don't you fish.... What are the costs to camp at mana
Ok, I set my reminder, I didn’t get the reminder :( Sorry, I’m sad about it..oh well, next time.
James, what kind of birds are those @10:00 ? They're so beautiful! Are they carmine bee eaters?
That they are
@@JamesHendry thank you for taking time to answer. Love to you and your bride from Oregon. ❤
13:48 why are they burning the camera and tripod?
Its just a trick of the angle
Poor Jeremiah
Perhaps he will seek another troupe..
Hi James what camera and lens are you currently using?
This is mostly a sonyA7s3 and a sony 200 to 600mm
I follow you on Instagram only I use my real name there 👍. Looking forward to this James! 🥃A Lil Apple Juice as my gift to you ☺️
