Baby Baboon, Chobe National Park, Botswana, Africa by Adrian Paul
507 views as at 12 September 2011
We came across this inquisitive baby baboon whilst on a late afternoon cruise in the Chobe National Park, Botswana. Luckily, the sun at a low angle and directly in his eyes brings out the full colours and sharpness of his facial features.
Camera – Nikon D80. Lens Nikon 70-200 VR zoom.

Tnanks for the comment. No, we haven’t been to Kruger – that’s for the future.

Great shot! Made me smile – couldn’t help thinking he/she was sitting on something sharp…
Thanks for your comment. No, nothing sharp – just clinging on to a tree trunk!
Fantastic shot! Lovely work
Thanks Jan
