Here are a few more animals that we
enjoyed at Mombo Camp in Botswana. The first two are the
Tsessebe--purported to be the fastest antelope. His markings are almost
blue in color over the reddish background. The red hartebeest is a similar
antelope but we didn't get good enough looks at them to get a photograph.
The vervet monkeys are always fun to watch:
We awakened an adorable bat eared fox from
his morning nap. He finally got up and stretched but never put his ears
all the way up while looking at us. The first picture is in the shade and
the second in the early morning light--what a difference the light makes in
photography.
This wildebeest and her baby were so cute
to watch. The mother kept putting herself between us and the baby, but we
finally got a couple of shots of the little one. The cattle egrets are
always a nice touch.
Next will be our favorite--cheetahs!
