Lions at sunset 30/7/2011

Most interesting sighting of the morning? Fresh fresh Ardvaark spoors...The afternoon was full of surprises, first chameleon in the car park, a cute little thing always a joy to watch, then we started the drive towards Mwayembe. We found lions in the acacias close to water so we parked and watched them to come out as they usually do as the sun is setting. I convinced the guests to wait, I bet on the lions and I actually got lucky.They actually came out before and when they did was spectacular, they went straight to drink at the waterhole, their bodies bathed in pure gold and most of all their reflections printed in the calm water of the spring... It was awsome, the combination of stunning light, blue sky and smooth water surface made the moment unforgettable. WOW!We also got a beautiful breeding herd of ellies with the fantastic background of a baobab forest, and just after three male lesse kudus which are always a treat.
