THE MORNING POST – CAT ALONG THE ROAD

Imagine you drive along a road and a cat is lying on the curb. Well, this is a picture of what that situation looks like in Africa 😊

Have a good day!

THE EVENING POST – GRACEFUL

It looks very graceful when Thanda’s largest antelopes are running. Greater Kudus are most magnificent creatures.

Have a good evening!

THE MORNING POST – MORNING WALK

One of my favorite pictures illustrating the process called cold air condensation. A Thanda Cheetah male was demonstrations this most effectively on a cold winter’s morning 😊

Enjoy your day.

THE MORNING POST – LITTLE SPEEDY

The next time you are on a photo safari I dare you to get a picture of one of these 😊

Slender Mongooses are always on the move. On safari I see them regularly shooting across the road from one thicket into the next but very rarely do I get the opportunity to take a photograph. This is one of these rare images.

These little carnivores are part of Herpestidae, a family of small carnivores. We got four of the family members on Thanda: White-tailed Mongoose, Water (Marsh) Mongoose, Banded Mongoose , Slender Mongoose.

Enjoy your Sunday 😊

THE EVENING POST – HOODED VULTURE

A few people have asked me about the bird in the sunset shot I posted this morning. It was this Hooded Vulture. It was drinking at the waterhole before taking off into the sunset.

Have a good evening!

THE MORNING POST – DETAILS

I got two questions this morning. An easy one and a more challenging one. Which animal posed for these detail? And can you identify the body parts, of which they were taken of?

This evenings’s post will provide the answer 😊. Or you could go go to my http://www.wildlife4kids.com site for the answer where I posted this quiz a few days ago.
