rain
I have seen sunny days
That I thought would never end.”

Hello Friends
After 2 years of drought, Gaia has blessed us
with beautiful soaking rains.
Nature is extraordinary! Obviously there was
not enough nutrition in the grass for not a single blue
wildebeest calf was born. (The season before the drought, every
blue wildebeest cow calved.)
Any animal that went down in condition, were
soon caught by the tigers and the cheetah. The drought period
clearly demonstrated how predators keep the herds healthy and
strong.
From a photographic point of view, the
drought provided unusual sequences, as both predator and prey
came up with ingenious methods to survive.
With the rains we now have beautiful contrast
in our pictures and tigers and cheetah strolling through fields
of wild flowers.
A privilege to be in the Garden of Eden right
now!
