Hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly in any direction due to their unique ball and socket joint in their shoulder. This allows them to rotate their wrings at 180 degrees in all directions.

A leopard is a cat that is the most adaptable and wide spread out of all large cats on earth. They occupy habitats from the rainforests in central Africa to the deserts of the Middle East. However, even though they are highly adaptable and overly elusive creatures, their numbers are still in steep decline.

They are persecuted for many reasons including human-wildlife conflict, the impact on prey sources due to bush meat trade and for their skins and bones.

The leopard is one of the most sought after animals to see in Africa and they are recognised globally for their beauty.

Fortune favors the Brave

If this time of covid has taught me anything, it would be appreciation. Appreciation for the time we spend in the field, the place we love the most.

This time has allowed many of us to look back at all of the moments we have shared on safari and take stock of how fortunate we have been all this time.

As our world of travel slowly shows signs of recovery, the appreciation we now have, should remain front on mind.

Volume up 🔈 to hear what this Caracal is listening to..
. . .
In the animal kingdom, the eyes of the Indian chameleon, the vibrant coat of a winter tiger and the unique spot patterns of the ever elusive leopard are few of my most favourite features. If I had to add one more to that list, it would have to be the ears of the Caracal. Over 20 muscles in their ears allow them to swivel each with ease and detect even the slightest of sounds. These incredible hunters are fastest of the African small cats and the most elusive of all. In my ten years in Tanzania, I've only had two photographable opportunities and we were lucky to share our camp this year with this bold individual.
