TITLE: Eyes raised high

A small huddle of cheetah, distracted by an overhead bird in one of the East African storms, raises their eyes heavenward. These very endangered cats are always on alert, especially when the cubs are very small. It was cold, and the constant rain was making the small youngsters shiver, which is why one had climbed onto mom for warmth while the others suckled for comfort. Masai Mara, kenya
