Painted Wolves

We managed to catch the wild dogs while they were relaxing. We usually find them on the move at quite a pace so it was a refreshing change not to be chasing and trying to keep up with them on the hunt!



A backdrop of recently burnt grass, a few green shoots and some winter brown combined with the painted coat and some late afternoon light. This created a wonderful composition for this one.





The glowing orange eyes and cocked ears in this image capture the essence of my favourite animal to spend time with in Africa!
