This guy didn't want to come any lower than a branch about 10m above the ground, and flew off before I got close enough for a really good shot.
So you get a BS* image.
*BS = "belly shot"

Coot - relaxed and hustling.

a mixture of 2 captive (trumpeter swans) and 5 wild (mallard ducks) waterfowl

I wonder what the one swan is laughing about, could it be about the one lone drake mallard without a hen???

it is certainly "laughing behind its back" - how rude

the waterfowl were found at the Topeka Zoological Park

African Penguin, once called the Jackass Penguin, but with the dominance of PC, that was considered too undignified for this bird, despite that its call sounds like the braying of an ass.

A warthog and Jackal meet at a Waterhole. The Warthog was completely unperturbed by the predator. Well, I suppose being almost twice the size, there was little to fear. Shortly thereafter the jackal moved away, as more warthogs came on the scene.

Ostriches in the Serengeti National Park Tanzania

off in the distance we observed a male following two females. eventually one female went left, the other right and the male followed the one going left. We believe they were engaged in mating displays. they disappeared from sight eventually

A little spring sparring from about a month ago. I image they've both lost their antlers by now.

Need help with bird ID. Are these Bufflehead ducks? If so they are way out of their normal range, this was taken in w. central Minnesota at the Big Stone Wildlife Refuge.
