A Cheetah at Ngutuni Sanctuary in Kenya

 During this safari we were able to fulfill the wishes of a guest that had always longed to see a cheetah on safari. After having gone on a number of safaris over the years, she had practically seen it all, Lions, Elephants, Rhinos, Leopards and everything in between on numerous occasions! Yet the only animal that always eluded her was this graceful and fragile cat. 

Cheetah numbers are sadly on the decline in the wild and for those of us who are lucky to see them, we should be appreciative of how blessed we truly are. So it had become a kind of humorous game during my conversations with this guest, where she would always say "this year we are going to find a cheetah ok". 

Well then on this particular trip, her luck finally swung in a big way. She got her wish fulfilled and actually made up for all the other times that she missed out as we got to see a total of 7 during the two days safari! 3 adults and also a mother with 3 cubs in the sanctuary. If you can only imagine how her smiles were filled from cheek to cheek.

The Unique Looking Guitar Fish

Guitar Fish resting on the sea bed One of the most interesting characteristics about the guitar fish is its unique body shape. It seemingly looks like a cross between a shark and a ray - with its flattened ray like head yet it has a long shark like body with dorsal fins - but this fish is actually a classification of its own and has about 50 subspecies.  The guitar fish prefers to remain tranquil on the sea bed, partly covering itself with sand to camouflage itself for any unsuspecting prey such as crabs or small fish that may come past it. Reaching sizes of approximately two meters in length, they are quite docile so can easily be approached by underwater photographers.
