An exciting encounter on my last photo safari. The zebra ventured in a few times so I got to see the action repeat and get lots of images. The light was good and I was quite close so it was easy to shoot, just had to do some minor repositioning of the vehicle.

Amazing!
 
Excellent shots . What an experience for you.

It reminds me of the wilderbeest migration in east Africa when they cross a croc-infested river . I think the crocs are aware of the migration timing and are waiting for them.

Yes, but they arnt very smart unfortunately and kept on coming back almost right away even though there was a crocodile free area just further along

Thanks. Very interesting blog especially re how TV documentaries lead the viewer to think there are several kills.

Btw. Maybe, it's my iPad..I seem to attract online problems with my iMac and iPad ..I'm on my iPad ...but there's a huge gap between your paragraphs.
