Last weekend, Brian and I went to Safari West with about 20 of my WCN volunteers. Safari West is a 400 acres reserve and they have all kinds of animals, mostly from Africa, but some from elsewhere, like the parrot below. As I am about to embark on my first trip to Africa in July I thought this would be a good introduction to some of the animals I am likely to see. I also bought a 100-400 mm zoom lens for my trip and this was a perfect chance to get some practice using it! Check out the shots below and marvel at how close the lens gets me! Then check out www.SafariWest.com for more info on this really cool place in Northern California. Melis, if you ever come to visit me we will have to take you up there!
I will definitely see cheetahs in Africa as I am visiting both of our cheetah projects there!
