Random Pics

Some recent family pictures that have not made the blog but are favorites of ours.

Peace Out!

The Big Five

We just successfully spotted the last of what is known in Africa as The Big Five...the very elusive leopard. We have now observed the Elephant, Rhino, Lion, Buffalo and Leopard.  

Below, a leopard lays asleep on a tree branch.

Just above and to the left of the sleeping leopard is its kill...a reedbuck which it dragged up the tree.

Another Quick Hello from the Serengeti

We just watched this cheetah run down a gazelle like it was standing still. 

Below, the cheetah enjoys its reward.

I haven't seen acceleration like that since I last saw TJ  go around a defender.

To Lukie, Jack and Brett who just wrote a message to us in the snow...we can see it from Africa and miss you guys too.  

Stay tuned. As we get a sporadic signal we will try to post a few more shots. 

Peace Out!

Briefly from the Serengeti

We are deep in the Serengeti and there is rarely a signal. We apologize that the blog has been temporarily interrupted as a result. We expect to be back with several posts on Tuesday or Wednesday. Until then, enjoy the photo that we just took.  Wow is all that we can say.
