Serengeti
Tanzania, July 2015
Agama Lizard, at the park entrance
Within 45 minutes of our drive into the park, our first lions!
Most of the lions were pretty relaxed
Except her…! Those shoulder muscles..!
I thought she was going to jump…
Topi – Hartebeest
Young Hyena
And our second lion pride, less than an hour after the first pride
lovely couple
More Topi
I checked times… 20 minutes after our second lion pride!
Against the rules, but we did go just a little off-road to get a bit closer…
Serengeti scenery
Leopard! An hour and a half after the cheetahs..!
It seems impossible…
Half an hour after our first Leopard, number 2!
The “Lobby”
Fire-pit and restaurant
Our tent
A so-called “Bucket” shower, as that’s how they fill them.
Dik-dik
Lost in poop
And serious fights… Spectacular!
Lot’s of action, early morning
First destination: the Hippo pool
Mother keeping the calfs away from the crowds
Bee-eaters
The dominant bull
Vulture
A Rhino chasing a male lion!
Remains of a wildebeest carcass…
And another lion pride
All tummies full and just lazing around
Second lion pride
Also full tummies, and very thirsty
And another lion pride
As Africa as it can get
yes, they also have mice on the Serengeti…
Endless savanna
Hippos don’t spend much time on land during the day, to avoid sunburn..!
Mongoose
Drinking
Golden savanna
Cheetah..!
Secretary Bird
Pretty comfortable, for our standards!
Bathroom.
Ready for another day!
Warthogs – they kneel when they graze.
Spotted Hyena
A so called committee of Vultures.
Vultures are very social and often groom each other
Swallow
Marabou
Tree Hyrax
Kingfisher
Lazy lions
Dik-dik
A Male Vervet monkey – Yes..! With blue balls!
