Surrounded by so many Elephants we were spoilt for choice with where to look!
Patience and perseverance while stalking allowed us to anticipate the herds movements and get to the swamp ahead of them and watch them pile in to drink.

There is no more beautiful time of year for Ranger training. The wet season is slowly winding down now so we have found the time to get some good training in for our friends at S.T.E.P (Southern Tanzania Elephant Program).
The lovely bull became a little protective over his fallen pods once he found out we were watching. This was a strange almost jumping demonstration I have never seen before!
The Winterthorn trees are in full fruit at the flycamp! As always the hungry Bulls accompany this dry season bounty.

Not a day goes by we do not count ourselves privalged to live and work in such a remarkable place as the Ruaha National Park!
Your spiritual journey need not include the constant up-close and personals with the wildlife - all you need are the sounds of nature and beautiful spaces.
Another busy night in camp for "Trap-Cam".
1) A lovely Black-Backed Jackal decided to urinate on the camera itself, they do like to go to the loo in/on the most curious of places.
2) A sleek little Genet.
3) Our gorgeous and hugely rare Striped Hyena is become somewhat of a regular but highly secretive visitor.
Time-lapses are some of my favorite shots and are best done at sunrise or sunset. Favorite because the a.m ones can be pre set-up to begin themselves while you are fast asleep and the p.m ones likewise so you can enjoy that crucial “sun-downer” at the same time!
