Safari update

No, we're not on a real safari, we're on a virtual safari. It does get pretty exciting around here when we spot something. If you want to join us on our virtual safari, just go to Africam . Here is the current list of the animals we've seen since my last post about it.


Hyena
Rhino mother with nursing baby
Vervet Monkeys (about 5 including a baby)
Weasel like animal
Wart hogs
African Crowned Crane
something that looked like an African Wild dog (it was in the distance at sunset, so it was hard to see)

We also got a better understanding of the song Pop Goes the Weasel. There was a weasel type animal hiding in a hole. It did something to get the baby monkey's attention, and the baby sat intently watching. When the weasel ran out of the hole the baby started chasing it. We watched them playing for quite a while. The song kept going through our minds.
