Were you able to hand out all of them? Not enough of them made? <br /><br />The animals and birds are amazing! Those red-eyed Bulbuls - sort of freaky-looking but beautiful. My son (who loves birds) would love seeing all these birds up close someday...Ellenhttp://www.hurrayic.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-50926828914436039072012-06-08T03:49:06.454-07:002012-06-08T03:49:06.454-07:00Wow,Lori! I don't even know where to begin. ...Wow,Lori! I don't even know where to begin. From the "organ pipes" which are spectacular. To the frogbird, the likes of which I've not seen before. What a long neck. And the inside of the ears of that sweet steenbok. If my 13 year old saw the grasshopper, though, he would run from the room screaming. Last summer when we stayed in a hut in Nepal, out in the middle of nowhere, there were lots of bugs and critters and creatures to contend with. When we would walk to the dining area at night, he would literally cover his ears and run as he didn't even want to here the sounds of all the insects. When we rode the elephants in the jungle, he barely saw a thing because he had his eyes covered the whole time. All this coming from a boy who at the age of 2 let a huge cockroach crawl up his arm and thought it was funny. Ha! I love elephants. They are so smart. Such gentle giants. What a fantastic trip! My husband would love it! Thanks for sharing your adventures.

I enjoyed this so much, and found so many amazing pictures and stories in it that it is quite breath taking. You have really opened my eyes to some very beautiful places and creatures and I can quite see why you are so drawn to Africa and why it influences your work so profoundly. Your photos are brilliant, beautiful and sensitive. I was especially fascinated to see the rock paintings, and I loved all the people and the sweet rosy faced lovebirds. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience, you write about it so wonderfully too.<br />Helen xHelen Philippshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16085327303967055337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-92108514094934830912012-06-07T08:30:02.657-07:002012-06-07T08:30:02.657-07:00what a pleasant way to start my morning here in Mo...what a pleasant way to start my morning here in Montana. the birdies so lovely...the rock art with whimsy... armchair travel has never been better.<br /><br />to think that there is still an untouched corner of a quieter wilderness world kept as is for a few generations forward to appreciate...thank you for sharing so gently.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03529300529803771717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-82917022792631438442012-06-07T04:59:25.326-07:002012-06-07T04:59:25.326-07:00Another wonderful treat!

Really, to all the locals who accompanied you or got to chatting with you you must have appeared quite outwordly! Your blond hair, your smile, your true interest in them, your gifts for them...
