I was fortunate enough to spot this lioness and her cub resting in a bush in the Masai Mara, Kenya.  Image shot with Canon R5 and RF 100-500 @ 500. Lions were about 200 feet away from our Land Cruiser.  Please click on image to see details.

They do love to make use of what shade and cover they can, Ed. Always lovely to see the adults and cubs at this age!

Sweet shot, lazing in the greens-a very pretty pair. Mom looks alert, and cub looks curious. Nice!
