this guy looks fat but has the traditional color of the male cardinal and I haven't figured out the weird feathering

Might be mange or some other disease.

Spoonbill. Don't think I've ever seen a live aardwolf, although I spent time inspecting the skull of one in graduate school.

Sightings of it are as rare as Chicken teeth.

Captive cub

First lion we saw on our safari, a cub literally left on the side of the road, possibly 8 feet in the grass from the road. This was in the Tarangire National Park in Tanzania, the 2nd park we visited

Hamerkop Scopus umbretta and Banded Mongoose Mungos mungo viewed from above and across the Tarangire River in the Tarangire National Park Tanzania

Banded Mongoose: The Animal Files

all of these animals were moving along and wouldn't stay still. They were on the far bank and below us and the banded mongoose, 6 or 7 total, were darting in and out of the greenery. (the dwarf mongoose and banded mongoose which we say on safari were always in groups, the black tail (slender) mongoose were always solitary animals). the river was in the foreground of the picture but i lost it as I cropped the picture.
