Sydney pelagic trip
As I headed out on a pelagic wildlife watching trip out of Sydney with Halicat I was really keen to see a new species of whale. Which wasn’t not too much to ask for, given that the only whale species I have seen are Humpbacks, Right whales and a pod of Pygmy Killer Whales. The […]
Lying down with a Cheetah
I often extol the virtues of being able to photograph wildlife subjects at eye level. There are a couple of ways to achieve this, and the most obvious question that comes up is what to do about cases where you are in reserves or national parks that restrict you to being in a vehicle at […]
Squacco Heron, Rallhäger
Denna lÃ¥ngstannare har strax varit här i 1 vecka sÃ¥ jag passade pÃ¥ att besöka den för andra gÃ¥ngen och ta nÃ¥gra bilder till.

Luego de la descripción que me hizo Liliana creÃa estar sabiendo cual era […]

The species depicted is a Common Waterbuck, found throughout much of Southern Africa. The photo was taken in the Kruger National Park late […]
