Leopard

We didn't have long with this magnificent cat. Soon after snapping this pic, it disappeared in to the long grass.

Grey Crowned Cranes

Gorgeous birds. This is actually the national bird of Uganda.

It is hard to describe such a creature as cute.

Some Buffalo Keep a Watchful Eye On Us

I wouldn't want to take on an angry one of these.

Elephants

Various adults and babies, wandering at their own paces across the open plane.

A Spotted Hyena

The rest of his pack are just visible, lazing in the bushes.

So Awkward

A giraffe is at its most vulnerable when it has to drink. The legs have to spread wide, meaning it is not ready to run, and the head goes a long way down, meaning it is not able to keep an eye out for danger.

Another Warthog

Showing us his most excellent profile.

Lions

A pair of lions lounge in the late morning.

Lion Cub

Playing in the grass, not far from the pride. I would take one home, but not sure if our pussy cats would appreciate a growing lion as a playmate or not.

A Topi

I have never heard of a topi before. I rally think they are beautiful, though, and I think from they are my favourite from the antelope / gazelle / deer type animals.

Giraffe and Gazelle

Maasai Giraffe and Thompson's Gazelle :) (I think...)

A Stripey Behind

Sometimes you don't need to see the whole animal to identify it.

Zebras

31 Jan 2013 270
Zebras have safety in numbers. If stalked by a predator, they gather together, and the stripes make it hard for a said hunter to pick one individual out of the group.

Hitch-hiker

A bird gets a lift, and in return, eats parasites from the zebras coat.
