Thematic Wildlife

Wish that would happen here, would love to get that close-our cormorants make a getaway as soon as they see you.
Saw this wildlife action yesterday

OH NO! It's cousin slither!

Fortunately for cousin slither, this one in definitely not interested

Back to mammals for a while

**WPRESTO** · 04-02-2015, 05:29 AM

OK. Can do for a few cycles.

Here's an old friend

A zoo animal, obviously. Captive herbivores, particularly, never look as sleek, clean and fit as their wild kin.

**noelcmn** · 04-03-2015, 01:33 PM

These fellows may disagree-they are healthy, scar free too.

**WPRESTO** · 04-03-2015, 01:40 PM

Granted. The pigmy hippo looked, to say it politely, healthy and well-fed. Not sure why the antlers of this deer were cut off: to prevent injury to others in the pen or to frustrate night time souvenir collectors.

Saw this Yellow Mongoose at Rietvlei Nature Reserve yesterday-not the best IQ, but it was skittish, and I dd not want to get too close as it would have disappeared in a flash. So taken with x2 converter. One of the reasons I like going there (on most public holidays) is that everytime I see something new-Meerkat, mongoose, Coucal and other birds.

Bird was very far out, 50-500 @ 500, then cropped = marginal IQ

**noelcmn** · 04-08-2015, 05:08 AM

A different kind of wildlife, attracted of course by kids feeding them bread.

**WPRESTO** · 04-08-2015, 05:18 AM

A smaller, more colorful fish.
