Africa Wild

That was a great lion sighting

The male is looking so funny; looks as if has a long beard instead of a mane

The black hue that they all have, is that maybe the beginning of mange

Sjoe, a great lion sighting and excellent pics

And butter won't melt in their mouths



What a great sighting! And awesome shots too. Like Flutts, I think that there are so many good ones
it's extremely difficult to say with one is the best.

a lot of cute little ones

must be difficult to be mother of a so big family

superb

So lucky to have a restful sighting with activity of cubs, Pumbaa!

Also had a laugh at their beards and still wonder whether they will ever get a mane

We definitely could not complain about that lion sighting especially as they were extreme good visible and quite close

More to come as there were so many good ones and the lions were so active

We had a more than great time with them - Sigh

Just to let you know will be away from tomorrow for another Kruger adventure - Will be back in 3 week's time and then first continue this one - See you

Also the younger males got their share from the little ones



whilst one of the ladies looked a bit grumpy





and after all the wild activities the cubs got hungry and





mom was willing to nurse them



and we had the honour in sharing that intimate moment with them.



Whether it was the rain or the filled up stomachs most of the lions got extreme lazy



and especially the cubs disappeared in the thick vegetation to take a small nap



followed by one of the males.

Now some of the larger ones moved away to the other side of the loop also on a similar hill



whilst mom was busy with the little ones who meanwhile showed up again.



“What’s up?”



The hunger returned as well







and we still had a more than perfect time in being part of their pride especially with such a lovely couple





whereas the little ones where still busy with feeding



but overall the whole bunch got extreme sleepy.





to be continued.....

Oops, looks like you may be posting, so will await your new adventures - (but ADORABLE doesn't even begin to describe your lion pics!)



It was worth the brief wait
