The guides moved to Moro kopjes in Southern Serengeti yesterday. Today Sean had them on top of a kopje at 0530am to see the sunrise and listen to the dawn chorus of birds. By the end of the year they will know every sound that chirp.

These are egg sacks of the Black widow spider. The spiky balls are a great way to id this spider. The Brown widow spider have smooth egg sacks. They are neuro-toxi and free living spiders meaning they hunt their food down and don't use webs. They only use silk when laying the egg sacks.
