Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya.

A close up of two male lions laying in the grass, both with their heads twisted up and to the side to look up into the sky.

Close-up side profile portrait of a magnificent male lion lit up at night. His golden-brown mane is thick and slightly blown back by the wind, and his amber eye looks intently into the dark background.

Emerging from the shadows. 🦁 Night drives hit different when a male lion steps into the light.

Nighttime portrait of a full-grown male lion standing in tall grass, illuminated against a dark, shadowy background of dense green bushes. He has a full, thick tawny mane and is looking toward the left with an intense gaze.

Profile of an apex predator. 🦁🔥 A close profile shot catching the thick, wind-ruffled mane and focused gaze of this male lion on a night drive.

Night vision. 🦁👁️
A dramatic profile shot of a male lion on night patrol. Lions have a reflective layer behind their retinas called the tapetum lucidum, which absorbs extra light and gives them roughly six times better night vision than humans. Watching them navigate the pitch-black savanna with complete confidence is unforgettable.

A majestic lion with a thick mane is depicted in profile against a dark background, highlighting its features and intense gaze. The setting appears to be a natural habitat.

Night shift on the savanna. 🦁🌙
Lions are predominantly nocturnal and crepuscular hunters, using the cover of darkness to patrol their territory and hunt. Capturing this male emerging from dense foliage after dark highlights a completely different, eerie dimension of savanna life.

A majestic lion stands in a grassy area, surrounded by sparse foliage. The lion's mane is full and its expression is alert and regal, with a backdrop of dark greenery.

This past weekend the Cougar Mountain Zoo's three lion cubs celebrated their first birthday, and I swung by to get some photos of the occasion.

(Cross-posted from my site, where there are more cub photos to see: https://andrewflenniken.com/2026/09/01/september-1st-2026-a-three-of-cubs/)

I missed the whip-cream smeared windows in their tunnel, but caught the sugar crash afterwards when they were plopped out on a platform together.  I did manage to be present later for their "birthday cakes": a frozen disc of blood sandwiched between two discs of frozen goat cheese.  They seemed to enjoy those a lot, unsurprisingly.  :D

Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 G

Color photo. Three one year old lion cubs, lying on a metal platform. They are tawny, with fading spots on their sides, legs, and belly. The further two are half sitting up and looking to the left. The closest is lying on its side and is staring ahead. They look very pettable.

Feeding lion cubs. These lions were at the site of a kill, so the cubs were feeding on both meat and milk.

Picture of a window of an old building in Vienna. It is rounded to the top and there is a metal grid in front of it with ornaments. On the top is a stone lion head with an open mouth. Photo is taken from the ground up the facade. Picture is black and white.

We were privileged to see this lioness moving her new-born cubs to a safe location one morning.
