Luangwa Valley, Zambia. May 2008. : This is a gallery of photos taken in Zambia's South Luangwa National Park (SLNP) between 3rd and 12th May 2008. At this time of year the rains are over, having tailed offf in March/April. Skies are generally blue with decreasing amounts of cloud, temperatures both by night and day are beginning to drop with the coming of the southern winter, and the water levels both in the Luangwa river and its surrounding lagoons are starting to fall. Although some areas of grassland are beginning to go brown, much of the vegetation is still lush and green and continues to provide good grazing for the herbivores which are looking sleek and well fed after several months of abundant plant growth. Because the grass remains long in many areas, animals are not so easily seen as they will be later on in the season when the cover has dried up and collapsed or been grazed down. While most of the migrants from Europe and other parts of Africa have departed, there is still plenty of birdlife, especially around the lagoons and marshy zones. Of the intra-African migrants some young birds do not move on but stay in the valley until the next season. Many of the resident birds start to build their nests and breed at this time.

Snow Geese, La Conner, Washington : In the merry month of May each year, thousands of Snow Geese come to western Washington near the town of La Conner to fatten themselves before the long migration to northern Canada. The flocks are huge and cover large areas of the farmlands where they graze, only to take flight suddenly in response to a perceived threat (often Bald Eagles flying over or near the flock). The coordinated, ballet-like flight of the flock is a magnificent sight, as are the birds themselves.

Cheetah Cubs on the Mara. : These shots of a mother Cheetah with 6 cubs were taken on the Mara in Oct 2006. The group seemed remarkably relaxed despite being followed at times by no fewer than 14 vehicles. Later reports were that the family had moved out of the reserve and that ultimately none of the cubs survived.
