ABC WEDNESDAY LETTER " L "
I just had to share my pictures of Lions for the letter " L "
for ABC Wednesday.
Both the previous picture and this one were shot at dusk on the first day of our safari.
The Lions blend in with the grass so well. It was difficult getting the entire pride in the picture.
There were several Lioness and 4 cubs, but Mama made sure they stayed down in the long grass.
We went out at dawn the next day and saw the beautiful lioness.
There was no doubt who was the Lion King .
Go to Mrs. Nesbitts link on my sidebar to see what others have posted for the Letter L.
As always enlarging each shot will give you more detail.

These are such beautiful creatures! It's no wonder the lion is considered the king of the jungle. It must have been quite an experience to see these in their native habitat, but I hope you were at a safe distance:)
Cobblestones are common in Oslo, but regarding Lions wa only hace them in sculptures at the Parliament
Oh, how beautiful they are! Such magnificent animals! And how lovely to see them in the wild! Your photos are magnificent! I have to admit I'm envious! Great post for the day!

The ultimate kitty cat! I wouldn't want to meet one without a good barrier between us though!
Magnificent! I clicked on the father and young lion and it looked like there was some blood on it's jaw. Did the pride just enjoy some dinner?
I feel like I was on the safari with you - you captured it incredibly - the lion king shot is my favorite.

Its nice to see that you have been bitten by the wildlife bug also :)
To go on photo-safari like this would be a dream come true.
Wonderful shots, especially they are taken in a real safari not in the zoo. How happy and at ease of the animals in the wild.
It is indeed a wonderful experience to take those photos in the wild. You are amazing lady. Your photos are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
