This sojourn by the Sungue (Urema Plains) will remain one of the most vivid of my memories. The thousands of animals, scattered over the arid plains, the flocks of wading, web-footed, and many other kinds of birds which fly over at sunrise to feed; the peaceful, solemn, yet imposing landscape bounded on the blue horizon by the mountains of Gorongosa and Chiringoma; all these things will remain graven on my memory.
