I was working in a safari camp based in Hwange National Park and I remember a time when it had just rained and we were at Ngamo, which is a vast open area bordered by acacia forests and some ilala palms dotted around. The dry kalahari sand was lightly sprinkled with new green grass and came across a termite mound where all these flying ants were emerging from. We sat and watched the eagles, kites, and various other birds swirling around us like a whirlwind catching some protein for supper. It made you quite dizzy after a while
