Zebra Colts

One of my favorite animals on my African Safari is no surprise. As a horse lover, it was only natural for me to immediately fall in love with the Zebras. Add to the lovefest, baby zebras were all over the place. Cute as a button they are. Little […]

Baby on Board

In honor of Mother’s Day this Sunday, it seems only fitting that I finally begin sharing some of the wonderful animal babies we enjoyed while in Tanzania in March. One of the animals that I ended up having fun watching were the Baboons and their families. Staying together […]

The truth is that a majority of the time, the animals are grazing with short spurts of group movements to new areas. While exploring the vast land of Manyara Ranch Conservancy, […]

Seeing Deeper
