A young male lion rolls over and streatches out in the days last rays of sunshine. |

A bearded woodpecker noisily searches for insects in Rann's Camp located on an island in the Okavango Delta. |

A lioness within the same pride as the above male relaxes in the stability of her mates. |

A pair of pied kingfishers hover near a roost of thorny accacias overlooking a clear pool of delta waters. |
