The wallpaper that has been on my Mac for years is a shot of 2 of these Lilac Breasted Rollers. I finally took my own picture!

 

 

This elephant died 4 months earlier

 

 

Red Faced Vulture (probly snacked on the elephant above)

 

 

Headin' back to the lodge after an amazing day along the Chobe River

Which looked like this on the inside

 

With cute sinks

 

 

Nice place to lounge around after a day in the bush

 

 

Nice place for a nightcap of Amarula - a South African cream liqueur made from the Marula fruit.

You know this termite mound has been abandoned cause they would immediately patch up any holes for protection

 

 

Are you SURE there are no lions lurking in this grass?

 

 

Sausage tree - the fruit can grow up to 2 feet long and weigh 15 lbs.
