Feb. 5, 2018 Tarangire National Park, Day 2:
WP Weekly Photo Challenge this week is “I’d Rather Be…” Back in the winter (although admittedly mild) weather in Chicago, I look back on our sojourn to Tanzania with longing, as I do with any trip we take, so I’d Rather Be Traveling.
I’d rather be riding in a bumpy, dusty Land Cruiser…

Me and Dale in a safari vehicle

Dale and my cousin Susan (at the door) with one of the vehicles.
and watching creatures great…and small…
and in between.
I’d rather watch egrets congregating on the banks of a lake…
and male impalas grazing.
I’d rather be photographing birds, such as this ground hornbill with a snake in its mouth…or this crowned plover looking for bugs next to our vehicle.
I’d rather be spotting animals in the distance, such as a group of oryxes (the only oryxes we saw during our safari)…or a male ostrich….
and a female ostrich.I’d rather be at Tarangire Safari Lodge, watching the sunrise…
or sleeping in our tent cabin.
So how soon ’til we hit the road again??!
Wow! No wonder you would rather be there! Super pictures!
Thanks! It was an amazing trip!
Thanks!
Oh wow, we share a common liking. Read mine that too declares wanting to be a wanderer.
