On our first safari drive of June’s visit to Botswana, we experienced several hours of a pride of lions typical morning. This pride consisted of two adult females and several cubs. The male did not show up for some time. Here are a few shots of the walk through the terrain.





At a point they reached a hillock, and decided to rest, wait and observe.


And then they sighted a large male kudu in the distance. The kudu saw or sensed the lions, turner at a right angle and ambled away.

The female lions then split. One went to the right while the other, poised, waited on the hillock. Then the females began to rum. Next:



We watched for a while, it got a little gruesome so we left. The next day we returned to find full belly’s, cubs playing and the old male, who waited too long to get a meal!
