Playtime at the Fountain

 

Usually, what I really want is for the animals at the camera traps to pause and stand still. Every so often, however, the cameras catch a bit of behavior. Sometimes it’s a relief to stop worrying about the quality of the data and just enjoy what brought me out to Africa in the first place:

Everybody likes a game of tag.
