Aat Vuik - Wildlife Photography
November 15th 2009
Somewhere along the S33 we saw this beautiful and tender scene.
Radio was on with: "Born to be wild" and then you see this just born impala... mother licking the skin and bonding.....
The baby impala made his first moves into the wild ... so beautiful to see him making his/her first steps ... a bit pushed by mum...
Under mother it is safe .... and already curious and not knowing that all yes/no can be a danger the baby came towards us, walking very unsure and sometimes falling down....
One of the moments you never forget... (one of the reasons to go to kruger in november was hoping to see the babyboom and we did.... )
