Pause for thought sent on March 24, 2016 (10:20) by Memy. 23 comments, 1452 views.

at 100mm, 1/400 f/9.0, ISO 200,

Abbiamo seguito questa coppia di leoni per diverse ore negli ultimi due giorni di safari e ci hanno ripagato con scene molto interessanti.. A differenza di quanto avviene solitamente i tempi tra un accoppiamento e l' altro si protraevano anche per più di un ora ma, grazie all' ambiente, anche in questi momenti di pausa, abbiamo potuto trovare qualche spunto interessante. La femmina era giovane e si stava accoppiando per la prima volta per cui ogno rapporto si concludeva con una grande aggressività da parte sua che, a differenza di quanto succede di solito, è continuata fino alla fine rendendo ogni accoppiamento uno spettacolo... Noi abbiamo seguito questa coppia dall' inizio trovandoli alle prime luci dell' alba con il maschio che aveva un labbro ferito da una zampata della femmina. Quello che colpiva era la presenza ingombrante di altre due femmine una delle quali ha provato più volte a proporsi al maschio che ha rifiutato sdegnosamente e dell' altra che sembrava avere un atteggiamento protettivo verso la leonessa che si stava accoppiando e che ha suscitato reazioni aggressive nel maschio fino a quando, al secondo giorno, non si è decisa a lasciarli finalmente soli soletti...

Pause hour wow! Poor ... :-D

Thank you!!!!
It was not for him he would respect the canonical 15 minutes but she was not willing.

Is not it a coincidence nor a mistake if I got up to take a picture.
High = reflected ...........
There are more photos of lions taken from a lower point of a reflected pair ......
In addition, because the pool was quite small, there was only one point where fell the entire reflections.

Memy, I am a couple of times on the Nat Geo intersection of documentary channels that were shot in Ndutu.
Just last night I saw one shot, according to them, in May and recounted life around the "marsh" (sigh ... :-D).
I am increasingly convinced that it is the most interesting area Ngorongoro-Serengeti ecosystem, and do not deny that I would love to visit it at the very end of the rainy season.
You what do you think about?

For me, the top may remain the goals but I put them on the same level ..
It may can only be sporadically interesting and depends a lot from 'unforeseeable rainy ...
But usually it is not a great idea: the right to make the 'example this year (but the' Last year was even worse and so the 'previous year still ...) already in early March the herds were almost completely left the direct area towards the Maswa and Wenstern corridor to then return to Ndutu end of the year ... in these months of course not all the animals leave the area and at least a portion of predators remains but becomes more difficult to sight them so much that the bike from May November is not found within almost no ... I've been there to see for myself, and above all there is dust and dry grass and coEven as the Goals in the same period was a great mourning ...
In 99 after nina (below el nino) there was the 'driest year that in the absence recalls, and other prey, the pack of the marsh had specialized in the hunt giraffes; Not an easy feat documented by an interesting documentary NG but it was years ago and are events that do not are almost never repeated ....
Rather there is to record an increasingly strong friction between the predators and the Masai who now over there are really too many, and since, in the absence of prey, lions and cheetahs are adapted to eating cows and goats, the Maasai kill them !!
l 'last summer were killed 7/8 5/6 cheetahs and lions! a disaster :-( :-( :-( :-( to which we hope to find a way to end ......
although there are pochways: the Masai do not tolerate any threat to their animals and the 'only way is to remove them from the area ... 20 2/3 years ago there were villages there are now at least 20 !! I tried to talk about it so many times but also someone like Yorna who has studied and worked with tourists has only one idea: those who kill a goat or a cow to be killed !! During the 'last safari showed me a ð Without video with his cell of a party that made in his village of Lake Natron to celebrate the' killing of a lioness (with an exhibition of pieces of 'animal ..) that he had killed a cow .........

Your experience on the area is not in question: if the variables, which are many, threatening encounters with the big cats, will not speak to leave the best time for that area. I remember that in 2011 the Ndutu area was much more arid than the same period of 2014, although it still took a memorable shower with "horizontal rain" :-D
Human presence and its consequences always saddens me more to read certain things. True that the Masai There Campania with their flocks and true that their land, but they could also find a solution to prevent the slaughter.
It occurs to me to Italy with the damage caused by wildlife to passenger cars; wild boar in my area often encounter the "bonnets" of cars and bodies were forewarned with various insurance companies. Maybe it will take parecchie cards but eventually get a compensation.
I saw that in Tanzania you pay everything, even the dust we breathe, still do not understand how they have arrived at such a solution addressing the "zero-point-something" (collected from the lodge, any other park entrance) to enter into specific insurance.
