I counted 7 lion. When the rhino finished drinking he walked slowly into the lidst of the pride as if to say, "So who's king of the jungle now?" Then there was a magnificent shooting star in the sky.

The eles seemed to have scared off the lions. I think that "shooting star" was actually a bug or bird that flew through the lights. I see that quite often.

Eles drinking and trumpeting..

Great day for action at the waterhole
Three out of the big five!

I'll take that any day for being across the Atlantic and looking through our little "window" into Africa.

I can't believe a little duiker came to the WH with all those lions around and didn't get eaten! The lions must have already had their fill tonight.

Carla, I don't think the lioness could get around the waterhole fast enough to catch the duiker. The pride has returned to the waterhole, now.

I have to keep my computer on "mute" while everyone else is around, so I'm missing all the sounds. On the weekends I work, however, I love to have the sounds of the African night surrounding me.

I couldn't figure out who that was. I was thinking the same thing... Taking his chances.
2 lions now! (though it keeps buffering so I will probably miss any action)

Hyena calling and lots of lions laying around!

Good to see you back Divewop!

ShayTay, there were 2 other lions in the background near the duiker that had an easy shot. I knew the one in the foreground was too far away though. This is soooo exciting!
