Limping Lion

The quest for Manyari was fruitless today. We were searching for her to change her radio implant which has flat batteries. We really need to find her because without the implant, we would never be able to catch up with the pride every night. The search will continue tomorrow and, hopefully, we will find her.

I snapped this odd picture on my travels, it is not often you get a giraffe neck horizontal and the juvenile oxpecker didn’t quite know how to deal with it.

This picture of a butterfly taking off  took me  along frustrating hour of galloping through the bush trying to find a fast moving butterfly in a miniscule viewfinder. The sun was beating down and I was questioning my sanity before long. To have an idea for a photo and to make it reality is what top professionals do. I do have fun bumbling around in the bush and sometimes get some interesting (un-professional) shots.


It also looks as if Kim will be delayed in the States for a little while so I will be doing the blog for a few more days.
