Siesta


What do you do if you're a black rhinoceros and the African sun just gets a bit too much for you?  Well... there are worse things you could do than find a shady tree and have an afternoon snooze.  This beautiful animal was hand-reared after his mother fell victim to poachers and, as a result, he didn't mind a mildly petrified photographer interrupting his siesta.  I was introduced to him by his trusted human friend, who stayed close enough to ensure that this incredible encounter went smoothly.
