Have a few jumping spiders in my house, Pumbaa! They are brilliant regarding young cockroaches!

Thanks PumbaaPumbaa wrote:Great jumping Spider shots, BluTuna,
needless to say that when I spotted my very first one I got a bit irritated about their jumps
Gorgeous hyaena shots and fantastic leopard pictures on top - WoW
When they jump, they move so fast it's like that have suddenly vanished! I have that problem with almost all of the insects I photograph. Just as I'm getting them frames & focused they fly or jump away!

Day 11. Thursday 29 May 2014. Balule.
Bright and clear this morning! We took a long drive down the S90 and S41 to N'wanetsi Picnic Spot for breakfast then back to camp on the H6, H1-4 and S89.
First up at the Hyaena den, the babysitter was looking very alert and I there may have been a threat to the cubs as it was the last time we saw them there.
The only cub that was out looked quite relaxed.
Later we found a BBJ sniffing around.
It came close enough for a couple of portraits.
Dead tree with Guineafowl.
More Buffs.
Does this one qualify as a Mega-Buff?
Burchell's Coucal with breakfast.
Our first unmentionable of the trip. When we got to Satara I reported this one's injury to the conservation officer.
A young Kudu was also getting breakfast.

Thank you Lisbeth, I try to take as much variety as possible. Digital photography costs nothing one you have the equipment so I take advantage of that and shoot anything and everything that presents itself! The Kruger Park I love is about the whole experience, not just the big 5!Lisbeth wrote:
