More Africa 2001 Photos

For anyone who just cannot gt enough safari photos, we are pleased to offer yet another page of thumbnail photos that are linked to enlargements.  We hope you enjoy them.

Tarangire National Park		Tarangire is known for its elephant herds.  Each herd has several baby elephants.
	We came across two leopard cubs waiting for their mother's return.  When mom came back, the cubs climbed down and joined her in the tall grass.
		We watched as two groups of Vervet monkeys disputed something.  There were huddles and charges and rest periods.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area		A Tawny Eagle greeted us one morning in the Ngorongoro Crater.
	Flocks of flamingo are often seen in the Crater's lakes.
And flocks of Crowned Cranes are found in the grassy areas.		In the heat of the day, these lions found shade beside a safari vehicle.
The baboons conserved energy by grooming or just sitting on a log.
	The view of the Crater floor is extraordinary.
Serengeti National Park		Wildebeest calves were numerous.  Many had been separated from their mothers and were standing alone crying.
	We traveled one day to the only water hole for miles.  There were thousands of animals.  The wind caused dust devils in the poor soil.
The hippos are too large to use the water holes.  They need to stay at the lakes and streams.  The herons will find water wherever they can.
This cheetah was very old but she looked well fed so she must still be a good hunter.  She is nearing the end of her life.
Our campsite in the Serengeti National Park was in a grassy area overlooking a valley.  Our lunch one day was prepared "in the bush" by the chef who brought the kitchen and dining room to us.		One morning we went out early and had a picnic breakfast.  We were joined by a group of young lions.
	They grabbed our napkins and the picnic basket and proceeded to play with them as a kitten would with a new toy.
