The hippo pond.
The airstrip is in
the background.



Five hippos among
all the lilies!



You would have never
known they were
there! A hippo can stay
submerged under water
for five minutes. They
sigh when they surface
to exhale.



The marshy area next
to the hippo pond.
There was tons of bird
life here, including
these secretary birds.



Jeff enjoying his
boxed breakfast. Yum.



Jeff, Jackson, Dawn,
and Tom. Jackson was
an excellent driver/guide!



Jackson and the Land
Rover. Carol and Tom
sat on the bottom tier.
Jeff and I sat on the
middle tier.



The cheetah family!


She's nursing her
five cubs. Wow.



What a beautiful
animal!



Looking to hunt.
They usually hunt shortly
after dawn and late in
the afternoon. They rest
in the long grass during
the heat of the day.



Since cheetahs are often
surrounded by safari
vehicles, this sometimes
forces them to hunt
during the heat of
the day. That is what's
happening today.



Family time.
I love this picture!
Females are solitary for
life except for when they
have a litter of cubs.



Most cubs are killed by
lions, dogs, and hyenas.
How will its mother teach
it to hunt? Look it up
on "Animal Facts!"
