Safari Recap
Monday, June 5, 2006 at 02:55AM I am coming off of a spectacular safari here in Tanzania. My group of photographers had an opportunity to photograph 47 lions, 4 cheetahs, 2 leopards, 5 black rhino and all of the wildlife associated to the migration of wildebeest and zebras. The migration was more scattered than in past years, and we were able to find a large concentration near the central Serengeti, the Seronera River valley ecosystem.
We took the opportunity to track and locate the skiddish cheetahs near the Gol kopjes, and actually had the good fortune to come across a pair of young brothers near an outcropping where we were prepared to have a picnic lunch.
From a photographic point of view, the best photo opportunity of the trip was on the first day in Serengeti National Park. We had a large male leopard in a tree, with an unobscured view. I will be sure to upload photographs in a few weeks when I return from my next safari.
I have a day of rest tomorrow, and then I am out for another run safari on the 6th. Should be fun!
