The lioness was lying in the grass and invisible, then she raised up on her haunches. I was able to catch her licking her lips and could not help but thinking that she wanted to do lunch. This is one of my favorite scenes from Yellowstone National Park. It was taken in early May and as you can tell not all of the winter's snow had melted. In fact it had been snowing earlier in the day prior to taking this photograph.
Nothing speaks Africa like a lion on the savanna and an acacia tree.
This lioness gave quite a performance with this yawn. Often the solitude of nature is all you hear as was the case here. This photograph was taken in Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. This is a fierce looking fellow. What I particularly like is the detail you see in its eye and the fact that its face is covered with snow.
