Hi Everyone...wow...lots of pages for me to catch up on this morning..I thought there must have been something interesting...and there was...lions...and I missed them..lol.  I'm actually kicking myself because I normally get up quite early and this morning I decided to stay a little longer in bed.  Had I got up at my usual time I would have seen them Sad

And I feel so sad to read about the poor little leopard cub...how tragic.  It is nature, but it's still hard to accept.

Thought you might like to see a little more here.  The whales were fantastic.  The splash they make when "breaching" is spectacular.

Can you experts tell me how long the pictures last on the site when using tinypic.com.  A few weeks? Months? Forever?

Enjoy the pics.

   the pictures will stay in  the site

as long as thier is an  AFRICAM   OR

UNLESS A MODERATOR SENDS YOU  HERE

Charles, Love the Penquins ! I have been meaning to learn more about them. I guess now is a good time to start LOL. Are they in an area that could possibly sustain a streaming cam ?  If they are,  then maybe we could all beg, plead,  cajole, wheedle,  and sweet talk Campbell into placing one more live cam ?  Smiling

 

Yes. I am sure that you could site a streaming camera there. There are a few Penguin sites around the Cape: Boulder's Beach where we went, Betty's Bay nearer to Hermanus and we saw a few Penguins on Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated).  Robben Island would be a non-starter for servicing the camera because it is a few kilometres off-shore.  Boulder's Beach would be best.  It is of course a protected area - but then so is the Kruger and Sabi Sands. 

From memory the colony grew from just a very few Penguins about 20/30 years ago to around 3000 now.  (I might have got those figures wrong).  They used to be called Jackass Penguins and they bray like a donkey.  Just like so many of the the road names in South Africa, they have now changed name and are called African Penguins.  I have a wonderful short video of Penguins braying, but not sure how to do show you do that - via Youtube I suppose but have never ventured into that.  If you want more pictures of Penguins then send me a PM - presumably that will come direct into my e-mail box?.  The rest of the pictures I have got down to 100 - 200 Kb but there's a limit to what I can further reduce and upload.

 

Charles
