AFRICA 2009!
Elephants in Chobe National Park, Botswana.
Chobe has an estimated 60,000 elephants! We only got to see about 1000 of them.
Herds of Cape Buffalo covered the grassy islands in the Chobe River between Botswana and Namibia.. They are as dangerous as they look!
Greater Kudu were common in Chobe National Park...males with long spiral horns banded together and were found separately from the hornless females and calves.
It took me three trips to Africa before I had the privilege to see a wild lion...well worth the effort! These were spotted in Chobe National Park, Botswana.
Yes, penguins some penguins can be found in Africa! These are the South Africa Jackass Penguins. Photo taken at Boulder Beach, South Africa.
GREAT WHITE SHARK! Also a resident of South Africa...this picture was taken close to Dyer Island, where "Air Jaws" has become famous.
Female Mountain Gorilla and her baby on Mount Karisimbi...members of the largest family of Mountain Gorillas, the Susa Group.
