| Africam- this isn't too useful, but it is fun. This is a link to live cameras set up at waterholes located at several South African game reserves. I took these (rather fuzzy) pictures of lions hunting on the weekend of March 14th. Note the lion eating in the lower right-hand corner of the picture on your right. :) |
