RAIN, BEAUTIFUL RAIN!

We had over 100mm of rain in the last three days at Thanda Safari. Some of our large mammals – like this Zebra – looked like they felt a bit sorry for themselves walking around with muddy hooves on slippery grounds. So far we had more than 400mm since the beginning of the year.

Let’s hope there will be more to come 😊

GROUNDED!

This Lapped-faced Vulture was grounded in today’s heavy rains, which gave me a chance to get a close-up portrait! … and it is still raining at Thanda …

iPhone distance 😊

This young male Lion walked up to my vehicle and had a good look at my iPhone 😊 These youngsters are very curious!

GROWING UP QUICKLY

These three Cheetah cubs are growing up very quickly. I love watching them playing around mum!

Eye Level

My Thanda Safari guests were taking some Lion images from the photographers’ seats of the Green Mamba. My specialized photography safari vehicle is ideal to get the perfect eye level shots 😊
