Catch up - Lions and Ellies

So I’m guessing I haven’t won the Yop “Most regular poster of the year” award??!
Sorry I’ve been so quiet – work keeps interfering with the important stuff like taking pics!
Anyhow, a quick catch of the very few shots I have taken in the last while…

Young male noticing a herd of impala heading his way.



His younger step-sister trying to look all cute and cuddly



Young male in the grass



Not so long ago the youngsters in the pride resident in our area looked like this….



Now they look like this… (horrible light, I know)









Some ellie shots…

Feeding on reeds



Feeding on a tree, sending the flowers everywhere.



Blocking the view from my office



And just generally looking for trouble!



Sorry for so many pics at once, but if you managed to wade through this far, thanks for looking!

Great captures as always Sam. Numbers 4 & 8 really stand out for me. I think they're great

Sam, a great series of shots I enjoyed looking through them. I find myself a little envious of your office view also.
