3 male lions, by the river

Species: lion, Panthero leo | Location: Linyati Private reserve Botswana, Africa, Botswana

After seeing the female lions on a kill, we then came across the fat and happy males, cooling off on a warm day, by the river.

About The Photographer

I love photographing all nature. We had a great trip to Botswana in 2013, and I got a lot of animal and bird photos. Many of my photos are used as reference for watercolor paintings, but lately, I am doing more bird photography because I love to be outside with nature.
