2019-12-02: Monochrome Monday
I was away for the weekend and after arriving back home late yesterday afternoon, I completely forgot to work on my Sunday post. In a stroke of luck though, the images I had prepared earlier last week happen to be monochrome, so they work perfectly for today too.
I’m feeling pretty tired today so I will keep this one brief… I don’t think anyone needs an explanation of these images anyways
Wishing everyone a fantastic week!

We saw this leopard and her cub on an afternoon game drive from Chitwa Chitwa. As is sometimes the case while out and about, a sighting is occupied, and vehicles need to take turns to give people an opportunity for viewing. Our turn was late in the afternoon, nearing dark, and it was a very challenging area to get into, surrounded by fallen trees and a gulley.
When we arrive, it was just the mother leopard, relaxing on the ground, paws over the edge of the bank. Our guide knew her cub would be nearby, even though none of the other vehicles had seen it. Sure enough, we waited quietly, watching this beautiful, lounging leopard, and out popped the cub from a deep within the bushes. It spent only a few minutes with Mom, when the sound of an approaching vehicle spooked it, and it headed back to its hiding place.
So if you are out on safari and are stuck in a bit of a queue for a sighting, don’t despair, it could turn out much better than you expected
Have a great week!

I don’t think I have a ton of overlap between blog followers and Instagram followers, so today I decided to share some monochrome elephant images that have been seen before on Instagram over the years, but not here.
If you are on IG, head on over to https://www.instagram.com/jensawicky and check things out
I hope you enjoy, have a great day!

The waterbuck image caught my eye today while I was editing, and I thought a selection of antelope would be a good feature for the day.




2019-11-10: Amongst the herd
Sometimes on safari, the vehicle is stopped to watch a small group of elephants, and quite suddenly, you find yourself in the middle of a rather large herd, with elephants to all sides of the vehicle as they make their way through the bush. I feel incredibly blessed as this has happened to me numerous times while out on game drives. For some people, the situation can feel a bit intimidating, but I always trust that my guide is reading the situation correctly, and has an exit strategy prepared in case things get dicey.
Thankfully, we’ve never had to use one of those, and instead can enjoy elephants as far as the eye can see.
I hope you enjoy my selections for today, and wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
