your URL loads in an independent media player, the other is within the site.

4. I had just figured the URL out.

My link is direct to the Nkorho Pan. I missed the vehicle (can't get the site to load right now). I've heard about vehicle traffic down that road in the past few days.

7. safari-goers from the lodge nearby

I wish we never saw the vehicle, but I guess that's the price of having this cam.

8. Why in the world do the "safari" vehicles have to park two feet

away from the lions and then start their engines? Exhaust spew doesn't hurt them? Man, for people who "respect" the animals of the reserve, they are thoughtless! (No offense meant to any who love the cam and the wondrous views it provides.)

At least for the lions, with the tourists nearby in the truck.

20. That was what was different. One was licking the other, then they

were disturbed by a noise, and stopped. Really, it was a different thing. I wonder if anyone has it taped. (On the Pete's Pond cam there are people who do a wonderful service by saving footage.)

22. Yep, that's the one I saw.

When the noise startled them. Right before that it looked as if one was sniffing the other. :shrug:
