Great experience
May 13, 2024by: RenéeProgram: Wildlife Photography Volunteering in South AfricaIt is great to have three months of focus on wildlife and photography. We had a lot of great moments with a variety of animals and learned a lot of them and their behavior. Improving my photography and editing skills was one of my goals, the help of the staff is really great for that. I loved being here and hope to be back.
