Big Five Favorites

Hello! I have arrived home safely and am starting to get settled back in. This semester was incredible, as well as the past few weeks of travel. I thought I was already over jet lag, but then I woke up at 3am this morning, so I guess not! :) The extra time this morning gave me a chance to go through some of my thousands of photos and pick out some good shots of the big 5 (cape buffalo, elephant, rhino, lion, leopard). Here they are:

Cape Buffalo:

African Elephant:

Rhino:

Black Rhino

White Rhino with Ox peckers (birds that eat ticks off of rhinos and other large mammals)

Leopard: (my personal favorite)
