I know these gorillas well, having trekked between the various groups, 23 times. If you get Mubare when they are about to have a siesta, its ideal. They were also the first group to be habituated in Bwindi (1994) adn although small in number, they are the most relaxed. Correct with two treks over your stay...gorillas are always in a different part of the forest with differnt light conditions. Getting that picture of a lifetime is somewhat challenging, but worth the money and time. The pictures of you and Kanyonye are simply outstanding. Beauty, calmness, quiet nature - all in a snap. Well done. Lisa Truly beautiful pictures. I know these gorillas well, having trekked between the various groups, 23 times. If you get Mubare when they are about to have a siesta, its ideal.

I tracked the Mubare group last June and I am almost positive this is the same guy who kept walking up to us as well. He apparently is quite the curious one and we were able to scramble (and I mean scramble since we were on the side of a mountain) away and he finally just went off and posed for us for a while. How wonderful (and a little scary) to be kissed by a gorilla- beautiful shots. I just love these pictures.
