Zzzz in Tanzania, January 2018
If you are lucky enough to spot a lion, the chances are he’ll be asleep.
Lions sleep for 18-21 hours a day, allowing the rest of the time for eating.
Unless they are on honeymoon, that is. In that case it’s a few days without food – sleep still takes time priority!

That first one, I could almost tickle under the chin. Not so sure with the second 🙂 🙂 Cat food! Fab shots, Debs.

I’m guessing you had a nice zoom lens! Beautiful photos….amazing something so sweet in appearance can be so dangerous.

Yes, I used my 100-400 for these shots. The first of the square shots was at 200mm, the other one at 400.

Those big kitties can be quite ferocious. I have seen them when they are hungry.
