Road trip to Lake Placid today. Fall is definitely in the air. Tupper Lake area was gorgeous.

Maggie and I were out in search of Loons Saturday morning at Long Lake Van Buren side. I (we) spotted a pair in Van Buren Cove while out on a searching expedition Friday afternoon and decided to come back in the morning on Saturday. Just as I was about to give up they appeared in the opposite direction that I was watching😳. Maggie was quick to point out my error. So I turned my gear around and as I was waiting for the pair to get closer I spotted an Osprey diving for breakfast. Sometimes it better to be lucky than good!

My trip to Maine was punctuated yesterday with a trip to Machias’s Seal Island. This small disputed Island in the Bay of Fundy is claimed by both the U.S. and Canada and is known for its large colony of Atlantic Puffins and other seabirds like Razorbill and the Common Murre. Only one Charter is permitted on the Island each day and a shore landing is not always possible due to the unpredictable waters of the Northern Atlantic. Fortunately, yesterday was an exceptional day!

The Mababe Depression in Northern Botswana is home to some of the most spectacular sunrises. It is low-lying, ancient lakebed that offers an unobstructed view to the rising sun.

Those of you who know me or have been following me since I started this journey in Photography know my obsession with the Milky Way. Photography, especially Astrophotography is a trial and error process that is linked directly to dark skies. So, how could I fly 8000 miles to some of the darkest skies on the planet without attempting at least a few Milky Way shots. The results are astounding! These images are as close to out of camera as it get’s. I used a denoise function to eliminate some of the noise that comes with any image taken at night and increased the exposure a bit and that’s it. The first image was taken in the center of camp with a bit of light to aluminate
the trees and the other two were taken at different locations around camp with a staff es**rt due to Lions roaring in the background like on the video I posted earlier.

As I start looking through the thousands of photographs taken on this trip I’m realizing that sharing all at once will be difficult, so I have decided to share one species at a time. I will start with the amazing Big Cats that brought me to Botswana in the first place. Our last four days were spent in the Savuti area ( Big Cat Country) where we could find the Marsh Lion Pride 20 plus strong, my favorite Big Cat, Cheetahs and my new favorite Big Cat the Leopard!
The first two photos of a female Leopard we followed for approximately 200 yards as she marked her territory looking for a mate which was quite a sight to behold. She would turn occasionally and glance back at us as she made her way down the road all the while we were all hoping she would climb a tree so we could all catch the photo everyone what’s of a Leopard. Well, we didn’t get that shoot but, we did get the second best shot of her climbing a dead tree sitting on the side of the road. That exact moment is when this gorgeous cat became my favorite. Not something I expected to ever happen. The first two photos are of her and the second two are of a male Leopard found days later in a different area.
Next installment will probably be the Birds of Botswana which are just as amazing as the Cats!

I couldn’t add the audio to my last post for some reason so here’s the recording of the Lions roaring each morning.

Just completed my 10 day trek through Botswana’s Okavango Delta. The most amazing and thrilling experience of my life! To get so close to these amazing animals has been a privilege and one I will never forget. Our first 3 day’s we were serenaded by 3 male lions just 150 yards from our camp with that roar only a Lion can make. It was truly special. We started each day with a visit before continuing our daily game drive.
More photos coming soon!
