Smith's bush squirrel (Paraxerus cepapi), also known as yellow-footed squirrel and in South Africa as the tree Squirrel. I saw these a few times whilst out in the Delta but my best sightings were in Audi Camp where I watched a female and her juvenile foraging and playing around my tent area and a couple of males around other parts of the camp. They were very cute and inquisitive. Obviously more used to human presence they took hardly any notice of me. In the Delta the ones I saw were a lot more cautious and wary of my movements when I saw them.
