While we were on safari at Mala Mala in South Africa, this little baby elephant wasn't quite sure what to make of us, so he decided to mock charge us about five times. Gaye videoed it while I took pictures of the baby elephhant's antics. It was very cute until his mommy asked us to leave! He charges us near the end of the video.
This video was taken at Mala Mala at the same time the previous elephant video was taken. This little elephant even trumpeted at us. He was very cute.
We followed, videoed and took pictures of this pride of lions at Mala Mala in South Africa. The following morning we caught up with them on a cape buffalo kill where they stayed and feasted for the next two days.
This video is of black bears nursing in Minnesota at a place called Vince Shute Black Bear Sanctuary. I put a 600 mm lens on a 5D Mark II camera body to video the bear cubs nursing from a distance. It was a very precious moment.
These pictures were taken during the salmon run on the pacific coast in an area called Knight Inlet in 2007. We went with Tide Rip tours three times to watch grizzlies fishing, fighting, playing and generally behaving as bears do within their society.
This grizzly family was lumbering along in Cadomin. We had the privledge of being able to follow along and hang out with them out at a safe distance as we stayed in our van.
Rio is our greenwinged macaw. He enjoys teasing the dogs. Rio is our
mascot. He loves people and especially enjoys playing peekaboo with
children. They hide, then he gets all excited, chases after them and
screams "PEEKABOO!"
Sumer Wildlife, 2009
In the summer of 2009, I photographed a black leopard, a barbary lion, baby raccoons, and foxes, wolves and wolf puppies, coyote puppies and mink. I also visited Vince Shutte Black Bear Sanctuary in Minnesota where I photographed black bears and their cubs.

Black Bears Nursing video
This video of black bears nursing was taken at a safe distance with a 600mm lens. Watching the cubs nurse was a really great experience, although I wouldn't recommend it unless you are in a very secure, bear proof area.
