Queen Elizabeth National Park

By land...





and boat...

Dominant male Hippo Dad


Some chillin' bulls


Hippo mom and little hippy


Uganda's national animal - the cob


Crocodile


A kingfisher (which is actually a bird)


and eagle


the skull of a buffalo


biodiversity at the beach


A trio of rejected, troublesome elephant bulls had been ousted by their matriarchs and now live a disgruntled life on the periphery.


simple pleasures...


These fisher-folk suffer and are somewhat subsidized by the government, having retained their right to stay when the park was established.


We saw them at launch time as they paddled out of Kalinzu River, toward Lake Edward.

with love from Jen
