sixth photo meme

Pink Dogwood from Wandering Mind gave me this meme a while back. Before you all gasp in amazement that i have finally figured out how to load photos from my mac, i have reverted to my old faithful for this one....until such time as i get my first mac badge.

So the meme is to go to my sixth photo file and choose the sixth photo and tell you guys about it. Well i went there and unfortunately that pic of the baby warts has already been exposed in an earlier posting. hmm what to do. so here is a selection of six photos instead...

this leguaan (monitor lizard) spent a long time pretending to be part of the mopane tree while listening intently to some small movement deep in the hole in the bark - he was also watching us quite intently. When we moved, he upended himself into the tiny hole and squeezed his whole body upside down into the trunk of the tree until even the tip of his tail was out of sight. How on earth he ever got out again we shall never know. Perhaps he is still in there.

Here is a white rhino peeping through the bushes. I just like this one because for such huge, tank like, fiercesome creatures - you would not expect them to by shy and fearful

now here is a strange thing - a land cruiser driving through remote northern Botswana - which is a semi desert country - with a boat on its roof carrying two passengers. I invite you to add your own captions, or scenarios.

this is what we do after it rains - race out to see how much water has run into the dams. The idea is to collect as much water as possible in these dams, so that it sustains the wildlife through the oncoming dry season.
