Crocodile-Real Close

There are huge crocodiles on the Zambezi River in Zambia. When we tried to approach them head on, they would spot us from quite a distance and dive into the river. We tried a different tactic of staying on the far side of the river, motoring above the croc and motoring across to its side. Once across, the motor was cut and we drifted down to the croc  which worked well. In this case, the croc didn't notice us until the very last second when a back current took us into the bank and startled it. As it jumped into the river, I managed to squeeze off a few shots.
