Every group except ours saw lions this am. Bummer. We saw lots of tracks but no lions. We did see 2 jackels, a mama rhino with her baby who did not want us to get close, a bunch of elephants with adolescents and babies in the group, lots of different birds.

After breakfast, some of us went on a walk accompanied by 2 rangers with guns. No animals close up, but we didn't expect any. More about flora than fauna.

There are some wonderful photos throughout this lodge. At the entrance to the gym is one of a crocodile getting ready to bite down on a Cape buffalo calf. Most aren't quite that gruesome though.
