Some great raven images Eddy. Don't take too long a sabbatical.

Long-tailed widowbird (male) photobombed by a tree - a hazard when panning. I should, in fact I will go back and clone out the offending, distracting branch.

It's sleepy, but I'll stay in the touristmobile thank you.

A better view of the Swainson Francolin posted earlier- this is a different bird

A lion in the headlights. Our vehicle was obliged to following this sauntering lioness for quite a while, as passing would have meant getting too close (based on regulations, not danger from the cat)

Mangling? Does not look like it to me! Very nice Sir!

As the saying goes, the best camera is the one you have with you. Driving down the highway I did not expect to be seeing a Great Grey owl just sitting on a post at the side of the road. I did have my trusty K200D with 18-135 close at hand, so was able to get a few images shooting through the passenger door window. It is my understanding that the slightly open wings are a behaviour to help with cooling off to prevent heat stroke.

Thank you

Nyala, pretty antelope., but then again most antelope are attractive.
