Hello my friends! After climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro I headed to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our safari guide was a very nice Tanzanian man from Arusha. He worked in the Tanzanian National Parks for twelve years and has been guiding for the past four. His depth of knowledge about animals was very impressive and he had an amazing ability to spot even the most elusive animals. So I decided we would do something a little fun today. Below are pictures I took while on my Safari. I used my regular kit lense (so these are the actual distances between the animals and us) and did not alter any of the colors. Can you spot the animals below and tell me what they are? Are you as good as my guide?

Probably all of these photos I wouldn’t see the animals even with my glasses if I was there, but I can zoom in on the photos. 🙂
1. Is the bump between the dark and light grass the back of a rhino? 2. I see a warthog to the left of the foreground trees. 3. A lion laying down. 4. Leopard in the left tree. 5. Cheetah near the center in the grass.
Those are some good guesses! Try not to cheat next time 🙂 Thanks for reading and check back in tomorrow to see if you are right!
Lovely pictures. I especially like the shots of lone trees.
Beautiful Maia!!! Your experiences are just getting more and more amazing – I’m jealous!
