This little cub and its sibling had been discovered by the guides at the safari camp. We were the first visitors to see them. The little female was the bold cub, and is the one shown in the photo. To get any photos at all, we needed to arrive at the den when it was still dark and wait for it to get light. The cubs were only about 8 weeks old, and would only come out when their mother was nearby at about dawn. To get this shot and a few others, we visited the den three times for about 6 hours total, molested by swarms of mosquitos. We got maybe 10 minutes of actual time to photograph the cub.

Title: Acrobatic Elephant, Namibia

This was one of two dominant bull elephants in the area of Namibia near the Hoanib River and the Skeleton Coast. The guides called him “Charlie”. We saw him several times in both 2016 and 2018. Every time he showed us his moves. He could stand on his hind legs to get the leaves that were highest on the trees. I always felt that he was showing off for us, as if he were saying, “I’ll bet you’ve never seen another elephant who can do THIS!” Photographer Shirley Sanderson’s theme for her exhibit is Under African Skies; any proceeds from sales made during the exhibit go to the Wilderness Trust to preserve the life of endangered species.
