Seeing this whole week has been made up of Daily Photo posts, why stop now?

Finding and photographing one of Africa’s most endangered animals has got to be on the top of every wildlife photographer’s list.  During the last week, finding the guys in this photograph was our main goal but no luck.

The reason I chose this image from 2008 for today’s post is twofold.

Firstly, this last week I spent some time in Madikwe with Andy Biggs and one of his favorite animals to photograph is the African Wild Dog.  So Andy, there you go – we really do have Wild Dogs in Madikwe!

Secondly, and I will be releasing all the details very shortly, today I nailed down the details for a number of photographic safaris for 2011.  One of them is a 5 day photographic safari in Madikwe, from 5 to 9 May 2011, where we will be focusing on finding and photographing the Wild Dogs.

Madikwe has got to be one of the best places in Africa to view and photograph Wild Dogs and with the rates I have been able to secure, photographers can be assured of affordable luxury, awesome photographic possibilities and sharing time in the African bush.  Gotta love it!

I have lots to do this weekend as I finalize workshop and safari dates but hopefully there are some photo opportunities in between.

Have a great weekend!
