Hippopotamus of the Okavango Delta
They look so cute and adorable, especially when they are cuddling in the water. Don't be fooled by their "three stooges" look, they are quite dangerous as most people know. They are responsible for more human fatalities in Africa than...
Cape Buffalo of the Okavango Delta
Cape Buffalo (some people mistakenly call them water buffalo) are know by two other names; African Buffalo, and Black Death. The Black Death comes from their propensity to consciously charge hunters after they have been wounded in an attempt (successfully...

Our guides drove us to the airstrip at Camp Moremi to see some male lions. Sure enough, when we got there we saw two lazy male lions enjoying their peace and quiet (which would soon be interrupted). One male was...
Leopards of the Okavango Delta

Namibia- Where Desert and Ocean Meet
After my Botswana trip I met up with a different assistant photographer and went to Namibia. My overall observations of Namibia are very positive; great guide, friendly people, interesting desert, and great wildlife viewing. If you like landscape photography, in addition...
Welcome to the Falkland Islands
Dr. P took Dr. K and two assistant photographers to tour the Falkland Islands (they should be renamed the Breezy Islands) on a three-week personal tour in January of 2018. Our tour guide was Georgina Strange, a Falklands native. She was...
