South Africa - Morning Walk

This "morning walk" started with a 4 X 4 ride at 5 AM out into the bush. In our case, it included a close encounter with a group of white rhinos including a baby rhino. We crept up very close before they discovered us and, thankfully headed away from us at a rapid pace.
The rifles were .458 Winchester and intended to stop elephant sized animals in an emergency.

Hi, Thanks for including us in your adventure (pictorially). You got some great shots, must have been exciting to see the animals in the wild. Fond Regards, Susan & Marty
