An impressive Lion in beautiful light 😊
PS: Yesterday’s bird: I took this picture of a Dark Chanting Goshawk on Tuesday at 12:36 on Thanda (Sgweva Main). He went a bit too far South according to Roberts 😊

One of Thanda Safari’s male Lions having a good stretch with a very full belly!

It is a highlight of any Safari to watch Lion cubs 😊
Have a good week!

It was a great pleasure to see your two dominate male Lions again this morning.
The last few weeks they roamed the rolling hills of western part of the reserve and have not been spotted for quite a while.
I love eye shots of cats walking towards the camera!
Have a good evening 😊

As I drove past Thanda Safari’s Villa iZulu this afternoon I saw a Giraffe bull staring at the gate. He did this for a good reason as one of our Lionesses had taken position in front the entrance, for a bit of extra bush security! 😊
PS: I will be taking a bit of time off and therefore only post once per day. Normal service will be restored next Friday 😊

This is the second video with music from the album ‘Under the Marula Tree’ by ROOT, a local band. It features some of my pictures and videos taken at Thanda Safari.
The music is composed to symbolize African nature icons (eg sunrises, Lions, Elephants, …). This very special album is available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Deezer for streaming and download! https://root.hearnow.com/
Enjoy the Lion’s Roar 😊

One of the most intimidating situation is a male Lion looking straight into your eyes. This is not a high quality image but it captures the situation perfectly! Good night …

Sometimes it is better to be very quiet and to make not a move. A herd of Cape Buffalo had chased a pride of Lions around and this Lioness went straight up into a tree. The Buffalo could still smell her but not see her.
The herd spent hours around the area and the Lions had to wait in the trees until the Buffalo had departed!
