Time to review the last year and see what goals I was able to accomplish from my bucket list. I traveled to seven different countries, each filled with amazing wildlife and people.

I am also only showing one or two images of each species/location, if you want to see all the pictures from that subject just click that name and the link will take you to the appropriate gallery.
