With the coming of the rainy season, so too come many new animals. The impala lambs seem to be being born by the hundreds, young vervet monkeys,  hanging onto mom for dear life as she climbs up and down trees. Everyday when we head out on safari, we never know what we might see, but a birth is something amazing. It usually happens early in the morning, thus giving the new born the entire day to “find its feet” before the predators go hunting again once it is dark. Year after year the comments from our guests are the same, it doesn’t matter what country they are from or what language they speak, the universal name for baby is aah!!! Closely followed by isn’t it cute.
