In contrast to the bone-dry Chesbro reservoir, the Calero Reservoir had what seemed to be plenty of water. There were a lot of people out on boats and jet skis around the water (including the ranger boat, which was rounding people up half an hour before sunset). Apparently the Calero is just over 50% full, while the Chesbro was about 5% full.
I wonder if the differences are natural or part of the reservoir management. (Apparently the reservoirs are part of different watersheds.)
As for the algae... I wonder if this is why our Brita pitcher grows a green slime on the bottom after being left on the counter for a few days.

Red and brown algae mats formed in the run-off from one of the many geysers. The silica-based soil (see left of photo) is harsh and holds little water.
This Red Algae was found growing on a few trees at the Rising Sun Country Park in Northumberland, Red Algae come from a group called Trentepohlia the red pigment is a carotenoid the same thing that makes carrots orange.
Just what it says on the tin...couldn't resist this. The running water was making the alge look waxy and fluid - fabulous!
The Olifants river is fishless, and although it's one of the biggest (and most consistently watery) rivers in the Kruger, not many species come here to drink. What's caused the damage? Hippos. Specifically, hippo poop, which creates algae, which kills fish.
