GROUND HORNBILL We saw about three of these magnificent birds in the Chobe
National Park, Botswana in 1996. They were walking along beside the Chobe river in
the early morning. The colours were fabulous.
HIPPO This photo was taken in 1994 on the Kazinga Channel in Queen
Elizabeth National Park, Uganda. We were doing an afternoon trip to see the
wonderful birds, buffalo, hippos etc in this region.
LION at Lake
Kariba I took this photo in 2000 near the Bumi Hill's
airstrip, Zimbabwe in the afternoon. The Lion was very relaxed while
we viewed her.
GOLDEN ORB SPIDER We visited the Matusadona National Park Northern Zimbabwe in 2000.
We came by boat from Kipling's to see the Rhinos. I couldn't resist the
wonderful colours of the spider.
ZEBRA I was very lucky to have this Zebra close to the car we were
driving in at Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe in 1998. They were just crossing the
road and turned to look at us. I have never been able to get so close before.
PAINTED HUNTING
DOG We saw a wonderful pack of the Painted
Hunting dogs near Xudum Camp, Botswana in 2000. We followed them for
awhile before the floods of the Okavango Delta defeated us, much to the delight of the
dogs who kept going on their hunt!!
SUNSET at Lake Kariba We were on a sunset drive to view animals and we had stopped to have a
sundowner at the edge of Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe to witness the setting of the sun -
beautiful light. 2000
ELEPHANT One of my many photos of Elephants I have taken close up and I was
thrilled with the light on the elephants face. 2000
RHINO One of the Rhinos we saw in Zimbabwe in 2000, early in the
morning, worth the early morning call!!
SABLE Once again we were lucky to be close to this sable to catch it's
wonderful side view. 2000 at Imire in Zimbabwe.
ELEPHANTS A lucky photo again as we were on a sunset cruise from Katete in a small
boat to view animals as they came down to drink at the edge on Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe.
It is always special to view a mother & calf. 2000
HYAENA I took this photo at Imire Safari Game Lodge in Zimbabwe in 2000.
Once again a lucky shot as they are very shy with people and move very quickly.
