This mountain is beautiful no matter from where you see it, but especially from all angles from Amboseli: Mount Kilimanjaro
When lion have a kill, their bush neighbours notice and gather to get a bite. The longer they have to wait, the more daring they get and are also not deterred by short charge.

Drinking is difficult for giraffes. They need to lower the front part of their body to get to the water. That brings them into a vulnerable position with their front legs wide spread, not able to run away quickly should danger occur and that makes them skittish.

This setting is probably something photographers wish to see and capture, lion on a giraffe kill with a jackal crossing in the back and a plane flying over at the same time. This needs a good amount of luck to happen, yet it is always rewarding to spend time at a sighting and be patient, there is always something that could happen.

The Great Rift Valley runs through Kenya from north to south and best known places in the valley are Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and the Masai Mara. When going further north the valley is more rugged and arid and stunningly beautiful. The range of colours, the different landscapes, the lakes and the huge numbers of flamingos are incredible to see.

Cheetahs always need to be alert and smart to survive under the pressure of other predators like lion. For a cheetah mom to raise cubs is an even more difficult task. This cheetah has been doing very well, successfully raising four cubs to subadult age.

Summer in the Kalahari is a time of lush green abundance and happy wildlife. It is an incredible time to experience a colourful desert.

Captured during the holidays 🦓🐘🦒🐆
Many years ago I ventured out to learn everything about every corner of Kenya with a tiny tent. Amboseli was one of the parks visited and it is an incredible place, well known for its huge numbers of elephant and beautiful views of Mt Kilimanjaro.
Have a wonderful Christmas!
The rains have been plentiful, the bush is green, providing lots of food for the plains game and fresh drinking water everywhere. The season of abundance has begun for all who call the wild their home.

The rains have startet and temperatures are rising, the bush has turned green and the wildlife is enjoying the fresh grass and water. Very soon the bush will be filled with baby animals and the seasonal birds arrive from the northern hemisphere. The time of abundance is on its way and the lush warm summer is just around the corner, a magical time in the wild.

There is a saying that guests have their “dedicated” special animal with exceptional sightings, which they will often see during their stay at each destination of their safari tour and that’s true.
This female leopard was constantly present during a stay for several nights in the Sabi Sand in South Africa and allowed insights into her daily struggles with hyenas trying to steal her kill (the hyena is sitting at the bottom of that tree and she is growling at it), the support of her daughter and the male leopard in her territory to help her survive (she was 17 at that time) and how she was a grandmother for her daughters son.
Seeing and also following the same animal throughout a stay can be very rewarding and allowing the most incredible sightings.

Often Zimababwe is only known for the Victoria Falls and Hwange, but there are much more unique destinations in this beautiful country like Lake Kariba and Mana Pools to name some … and all offer exceptional wildlife experiences.

There is one destination that is incredibly diverse, having all from Big 5 safaris to whales and seals, from mountain hiking to diving and surfing, from remote wild places to buzzing cities… this place is called South Africa.

Zambia’s mighty wild places are mainly along rivers, beautiful majestic rivers like the Zambezi.

The ever exciting Victoria Falls are a great place to start off when traveling in Southern Africa. And there is more than just the falls. The mighty Zambezi River and the national park offer something special for everyone.
