Strange how Cape Buffalo always stare at you with a "You owe me money" look."

Impala - (referred to as the MacDonald's of the bush, because if you look closely at their behind they have an M shaped marking and all the big predators eat them.) An American lady on our Safari vehicle asked the guide one day "Do Elephant eat Impala?" . How he kept a straight face when he answered I don't know!

That's neat, that's neat, that's neat, that's neat... I really love those Lion feet.

There will be more pics from our recent trip to SouthAfrica shortly.

Who said Hyena aren't cute?

This little fella was one of three we saw outside a den near Umlani Bush Camp. This one often sat back whilst the other two played.

Beautiful Kingfisher, Zambia 2011

 It rained quite hard when we were in South Luangua in Zambia in 2011, and when we returned to our room after dinner we found these Brown House Snakes entwined around the metal grill screen which separated our bedroom from the outside.

The Millpeed is preyed on by very few other creatures as it contains Cyanide. We saw this fine specimin in Zambia in 2011 in South Luangua.
