Botswana: Okavango Delta Safari 2013: Day 2

Lions in the camp is never a bad way to start a day!  A pride of 4 lions sauntered through the camp just before the early morning wake-up call, which we quickly proceeded to follow for the rest of the morning.  They were making their way in the general direction of the large herd of buffalo, but with no real intent.  Along the way, we encountered many herds of elephants, a side-striped jackal den site, and a magnificent lightning show!

Major sightings of the day:

  • 4 lions
  • Large herd of buffalo
  • Several herds of elephants
  • Side-striped jackal den site with 2 pups
  • Massive lightning show

Botswana: Okavango Delta Safari 2013: Day 1

We got off to a great start with a pride of 6 lions feeding on a large buffalo.  Things picked up even more when a herd of elephants walked into the background.  Several more herds of elephants also graced us with their presence, most notably one herd just as the sun was setting, giving us some great silhouette shots.  To top off our first afternoon, a small family of 3 bat-eared foxes found their way in front of our lenses.

Major sightings of the day:

  • Several herds of elephants
  • 3 Bat-eared foxes
  • 6 lions on a buffalo kill
  • African rock python
