Apologies for the delay with my post,
it has been one of those weeks.
I was also procrastinating about how to approach this challenge
and eventually decided to post some images
from our two safaris in Africa, as I have
posted some of the BW shots on Gurushots
during the week for some fun.
All the hornbills have a stern look about them;
a bit like my Grade 2 teacher used to look.
Like her they look stern but are fun to have around.
The African Starling…a far prettier bird than our variety.
Thirsty elephant in Botswana’s Okavango Delta.
Also still at a Delta camp this
Lilac Breasted Roller posed for us.
Back in South Africa two 6-8 week old lion cubs came
to within twenty-feet of our vehicle.
It was the quietest, but noisiest (cameras)
twenty minutes of our trip.
If you are wondering, mum was, she was about 50 metres away…
…no doubt relieved that her tail was no longer
the centre of their attention.
Why Africa?
At the moment we are in the final stages
of organising another safari for 2020.

THey were Tina. We were blessed with lion sightings on our first trip and saw none the following year. Just hope 2020 brings more luck. I think I could visit Africa more often, just for the animals.
