I was going through my files and realized that I had not shared my pictures from Africa of the animals. It just wouldn't be Africa without the animals would it? I enjoyed just about everything about Africa especially the animals. As I have told you before Namibia reminded me a lot of Texas only the animals were very different. Most of these pictures were taken in Etosha National Park in Namibia Africa. I highly recommend that if you are in Namibia that you be sure to add Etosha to your travel plans if possible. It is a huge protected park that includes many different types of land and water areas. It is beautiful. Because my post is a bit image heavy, I am going to let most of the pictures speak for themselves. As they say, a picture is worth a 1000 words.

Just to give you a bit of perspective of how large this nest is. |
Lesser masked weaver bird |
Not sure what kind of birds they are but I thought they were pretty |
Taken in Northern Namibia near Outapi. The people there are herdsmen and their wealth is in their herds of cattle and goats. |
Impala |
Kori Bustard Riesenstrappe |
Wildebeest |

Not sure what kind of birds enjoying the water. |
I was amazed at the many varieties of birds |
ducks |
Gemsbok Gemsbock Oryx |
Springbok |
Helmeted guinea fowl |
Impala |
It was amazing to watch the large herds come for a drink. first you would see one then single file they would come until there were hundreds. |
Their most vulnerable moments |
Oryx |
Kudu |
The kudu look friendly, I wonder if they really are. |
That is elephant dung he is sniffing or eating |
They are so graceful |
I took this one through glass windows, everyone felt that might be better. Cheetah on the prowl. |
Burchells Zebra, they were one of my favorites. |
Our first elephant. He was light colored because he had been rolling around in the white soil of the pan nearby. |
Not so hidden close up. |
Until Next Time
