I could think of a couple of captions for pic #4 but in the interest of good taste, I will refrain from sharing.. lol It must have been an exciting trip to see them in their natural habitat.

I’m sure that it was a connection to nature that most people will never get.. My sister-in-law just came back from a game reserve there in South Africa Inube? Does that sound right? She was totally overwhelmed by the experience.. Both of you were so very fortunate to have been able to enjoy that interaction with the animal kingdom.

I haven’t heard of Inube and didn’t get any results with google either. If you can check on the spelling, or perhaps let me have the full name of the game park as it may well be the name of a camp within a game park? Your SIL sounds like a person after my own heart!

She loved it, except her luggage got lost by the airline for awhile.. But all’s well that ends well..

Not so dwindling in that area, Carl. It seemed that every species we saw had youngsters too, but not always easy to photograph.

We are lucky to be blessed with such a variety of animals! And I was extremely lucky to have everything fall into place, ie being given the trip and seeing all the animals close up.

I was really hoping for some nice photo’s of baby warthogs – they are so sweet – but the dad should suffice. I’ll give it a try in the weekend, but no promises… 😉
