Wild! photographer and teller-of-tales. Amazed and in awe of the wild ones I have been blessed to photograph. I am a wildlife photographer and story-teller who occasionally creates moving pictures. You can find out more about my work at njwight.com or on any of the social sites under NJWight. (Facebook, IG, ko-fi.com)Thanks for dropping by. While my photography is my profession and passion, I confess I am better known as Mom to a certain angel schnazuer named Pluto. (ua-cam.com/users/plutoliving) I was tired of freeloading on her channel. Thanks for subscribing to my channel. Lots more to come!
Playful Leopard Cub with Mom
What a treat to find Natito, a stunning young #leopard, and her 5 month old cub relaxing on a fallen tree at the end of the day. Of all the #bigcats, leopards are the most challenging to photograph. Rarely do they show themselves like these two did one early evening in the Olare Conservancy. While Mom was content to get a little snoozing in (don't miss her little lip curl at .24 seconds! ), Spot junior was restless and up to some #cat shenanigans! What better toy than Mom's tail! The light was very low, presenting some challenges, and unfortunately it was very windy, so I was unable to use the natural sound. You can't have it all. Thanks for subscribing to my channel!

Zebra Survives Crocodile Attack
Переглядів 21 тис.Місяць тому
(Warning-while this video contains stressful scenes of or predator-prey engagement, the zebra escapes and survives!) I captured this incredible #wildlife act of determination, courage and stamina during a #zebra crossing while on safari in early July 2024. Hundreds of thousands of zebras taking part in the Loita migration in Kenya travel south to the Mara River, crossing into the Triangle and o...
The King!

The amazing Osupaat, dominant male of the Enkoyonai #lion #pride. A true #safari moment! What a privilege to watch him in the early morning light, wandering the plains on his way home from a night of snacking. I was shooting with an iPhone on the end of an extension pole, lowered outside the truck. I can't see what I am capturing, so, the horizon is not always straight. But - can you feel him b...
Elephants Through the Grass
Переглядів 9072 місяці тому
Volume up and enjoy some peaceful moments on #safari with a small herd of #elephants walking through the tall grass. Shot on an #iPhone14Pro which was at ground level on an extension pole, you are up close listening to the swoosh of their incredible bodies as they wander past. I am unable to see what I am actually shooting when I do this, so it is a total surprise when I bring the camera back i...
Elephants Sleeping-Rise and Shine
Переглядів 1,5 тис.2 місяці тому
What an incredible #wildlife sighting on #safari! It has been quite rare for me to see elephants sleeping on the ground, and when I have, it has usually been one youngster. But on this special morning there were 5 or 6 of them asleep in the grass! It was just after sunrise when we came across this #elephantherd and while many were grazing, several members of the herd continued to have a lie-in,...
Hippo Salad!
Переглядів 1,9 тис.3 місяці тому
A wonderful afternoon with a bloat of #hippos relaxing in a small, water lettuce covered pond on a #safari in the Mara. Well, two of them were not exactly "relaxing." Indeed, there was a little happy #hippopotamus humping happening under the setting sun! Ziggy-doo!!! The hippos were lazily bobbing up and down amidst the floating aquatic plant, which was so thick, you could not see the surface o...

Beautiful ❤ Magnificent long tusks!
Craig is wonderful ❤
Craig is magnificent. Thank you for sharing your time with him He is awesome ❤❤
Absolutely magnificent ❤
You are awfully close to him!😅
You've seen Craig before and he's seen you too. He's magnificent! Seems like a mutual respect you two have going. Yes, interesting thing he's doing with the stick. Playing or making a statement? 🤔 I almost wonder what would happen if you mirrored that response with a stick. Or maybe he would see it as a threat? 😬
Torço sempre pelas zebrinhas...
Looks like the crocs weren't hungry and the hippos weren't interested in defending their space. A very lucky zebra to say the least.
Looks like he forgot his stud for his pierced ear that day.
I dug wells next to lagoons so that animals could drink water without being surprised by crocodiles. Indigenous well.
Oh, a big scratching post🙂
Great scratching posts! Who's sharpie?
Using the bark as a nail file. Love them they are so beautiful ❤️❤️
Like exercise equipment! 💨❤️🐾
Call the fire department!! There’s a cat stuck in the tree!
❤️🔥
Just helping with the pruning!
This is such a joy to witness!!! THANK YOU!
😂somebody is teething maybe?
Breathtaking!!! I've probably watched this a dozen times now, finding the differences in each of the lions. I'm guessing you weren't perceived as competition or a threat. QUESTION: Do some of them seem to have dapples on their stomach and parts of legs, or is that mud? 🤭 I know my dark (bay) horse used to get faint dapples in the summer.
They actually have spots. They begin to fade as they get older, but even on adults you can still see them sometimes.
So Unreal! Gorgeous!
I really enjoy watching these 2 !! Mom is so very patient !!
Zebras like to keep company with giraffes as they are first ones to spot approaching predators.
Beautiful creatures!
kids!
Lovely start to my day….
Thank you so much. It’s incredible to see here, it must be absolutely mind blowing in real life.
It was quite extraordinary!
Yes, I noticed the lip curl the first time I watched this vid. Kind of like Mom saying that if the kit jumps on her back one more time she's going to give her some slap therapy.
I love the way the youngster hangs over the branch whilst playing with mums tail. Every time I watch the video I see something new ❤❤
omg - just like when 2-legged moms try to nap & the kiddos are not 'ready' to settle down yet! beautiful!
Beautiful video. What a little trickster. her cub is fascinated by her tail and she patiently lets the play continue. What an excellent mum. Thank you for the beautiful footage.
Kitties just being kitties❤
THIS is really (x4) special! 💨❤️🐾
So adorable
Thank you for that super special privilege! ❤️❤️❤️Amazing❤️❤️❤️
WOW, just WOW! This is a work of art, flowing with love and devotion. Thank you so much for sharing your rare gifts so generously Nancie. I hope you realise how many hearts you have filled today.♥
Great music
She is not impressed. Go away!
WOW!! Absolutely stunning!! It's so wonderful to see our 4-legged family in their element. Thanks NJ for posting!!
What a sweet, fun video to watch. They really are like pet cats in their playfulness. Your editing is so very well done! The final image is especially beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful footage 😍
😂❤
Nature is so beautiful. Thank you.
Advice to first time mothers is always, when the baby takes a nap, you take a nap too. Poor Mom! They're both beautiful felines.
What a will to live.. Impossible to possible
Incredible will to live and fighting spirit!
Holy shit…..crocodiles AND f*cking HIPPOS, which you didn’t include in the title… That zebra is a G! That zebra is living excuse that you have ZERO excuse for not overcoming any of your obstacles and challenges.
Wow !
He IS the coolest dude!!! 💨❤️🐾
he is!
I could not have witnessed this in real life. I admire your fortitude, dear NJ. 💨❤️🐾
