Leopards of Africa

Sunday, a day off, and a trip back to Africa, because, once again, I am sick of roads and slides and bridges and closures so I am escaping.

 

 

 

 

Escape into Mother Nature today, whether in your local forest, city park, or your own backyard. Celebrate her everyday, but particularly today.

  • Love the last one!
    Chillen! "To be in a state of prolonged satisfactory boredom. A positive phase of being, not regarded as being bored but not in the process of doing anything worth elaborating upon."

  • I adore your photographs of these exquisite creatures!!! Thank you for sharing them with us, Kate.

  • Dear Kate,
    Deep thanks for your time, commitment, knowledge, good judgment, practicality, wisdom and leadership. And, for you today or whenever, some exquisite distraction: http://sfbayospreys.org .
    The cam is on a crane in the Richmond Marina (SF Bay). Treasure Island in the background to the right -- and in the misty distance, to the left, the East Bay. The little island in the near background is (I think) tiny Brooks Island. Take care of yourself. MJ

  • That last image makes me want to curl up for a good snooze. Isn't it wonderful to be able to go back to that wonderful time. I find pictures help so much in putting me back to that idyllic place and time. Glad to see you taking some breaks!

  • I have some leopard protos that I took....similar except mine have fat bellies hanging over the tree limbs. If I could figure out how to post them, I would...
