LIONS I want to see lions!

Me too! And Elephants.


Good pictures Susiebell! I saw a similar bird last evening. He/She stayed for quite a while and it was neat to see the birds reflection in the pool. I also saw a very small animal. Not sure what it was. It was only there for one frame. The little critter must have drank fast and left.

Cameras have been down off and on still.

Yes, I think those are an African deer type animal. (I don't know the official names  :) )

Good spot! I may have missed them.

I wonder if they are very cautious due to the fact that big cats also come to the watering hole so they must be very careful.

Jess, that's a great shot of the whole watering hole and herd.

Susiebell, great shot. It looks like dusk. I love the colors.

Before I go to bed I'll post my sightings from this evening.

Birds. I wonder what they are called. And more of the dear little deer animals. They were around for quite awhile. Getting their morning drink. I'm so glad water is provided for them.



Two birdies.

when I first started looking at these waterholes I wanted to see lions...(ok still do...do they NEVER get thirsty???!!) but now I just worry to death about some of these deer...when they come up in groups it is fun but earlier this morning a LONE deer came up..and ya'll KNOW it is ALWAYS the lone deer that gets eaten!! It had its head tilted looking at that clump of bushes and I was just thinking "DON"T GO IN THERE!"

It is like watching one of them slasher films...

Eeeeeek! :o

My son was watching the deer yesterday evening and said "Wouldn't it be cool if a lion jumped out of that bush right now?" then proceeded to act it out for me!  Sweet boy!  ::)

Susie  :)

oh no!! that is a boy for you, isn't it?  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

and he is too young to think about the poor deer.... ;)

(I bet it was too cute! I miss have a little one!)
