In Denmark we are traditionally having Duck as well as Pork Roast for Christmas. Hope we behave a little better than these guys!

My wife is Danish and I'm from a former Danish colony (Yorkshire) so I have a duck in the oven for tonight.

 

Glædelig Jul!

[Rainbirder]

Merry Christmas to all!

Ghosts in the Twilight

 

 

On our last morning in the Sierra de Anjudar, before the sun was even above the horizon, in the morning twilight as we were driving to our scoping site, I spotted a ghostly shape, coursing just off the roadside. I shouted to our Guide to stop and reverse and there we watched as not one, but two iberian lynxes trotted through the trees and disappeared over a hill before we could get any photos. So this is how I have chosen to document the encounter..

A close up of the females head would look great if quality allows it.

What an expression!

@@kittykat23uk

You are very talented!

A great encounter to see those - very rare I imagine.

[kittykat23uk]

Thankyou @@TonyQ! This last year has been particularly difficult for lynx and sightings have been much lower than in previous years.

This i took on a beautiful, still and clear evening in Magotho camp on the banks of the river Khwai in the Okavango Delta.

[JohnR]

Nice capture and welcome to Safaritalk.

[Game Warden]

@@Freddiebos Welcome indeed to Safaritalk: look forward to seeing more of your images. Matt.

[Freddiebos]

Thank you Game Warden and John R!

I couldn't find a thread for miscellaneous images - ie not wildlife, so I've posted this here.

 

I couldn't resist this colourful display of local pottery in Nairobi.

What a view,

who said the Maasai Mara was overcrowded?

 

Keep calm and go to Kenya

While I am by no means a professional star trail photographer, I quite enjoy trying

An "artistic" interpretation of some more crossing action, further details and photos coming soon in my trip report - Northern Serengeti, Tanzania 2013.

Lovely shots everyone.

 

Here's mine - taken at Chinhoyi caves in Zimbabwe (a suitable stop-over if you are driving from SA to Mana Pools). The deepest freshwater scuba pool in the Southern Hemisphere, this, they actually haven't determined the depth yet...
