Just a little Chat....

... and, you won't believe this... didn't he make a pass at me ?
 But I put him in his place! "How dare you?" I said. "I am not just one of your common Geese, with whom you have been seen in the neighbourhood. I am an Egyptian Goose!"

"Oh, yes, you are so right, I don't know what this world is coming to. One must almost be afraid to venture onto the street alone."

I could not agree with you more...

Quack, quack, quack...

and what is more: quack, quack, quack...

Leopard NOT hunting




Leopard "hunting" in his dreams

The Leopard Pups




PHOTOGRAPHICALLY SPEAKING
the following images are not very good.
It was still a bit on the dark side,
so I had to use slower shutter speed than would have been ideal


In such a situation one just cannot be too choosy.





I like the disappearing tail at the left.






The Chilojo Cliffs



At the top of the Chilojo cliffs.
The view from there is simply breathtaking
particularly when you see 4 groups of elephants of about 20 to 30 members each
crossing the river Runde



The Chilojo Cliffs are one of the super attractions of
the Gonarezhou National Park 
in the South/East corner of Zimbabwe.
The other "Super Attraction" is 
Antony (Ant) Kaschula,
our guide for the last three Safaris there.
