Southern Africa through my lens
I spent two and half weeks at home in July where I was able to spent some time in the Kruger Park around Letaba and Timbavati Rivers.

This was the 1st time my daughter joined me in the Park.

I also had a quick stop over with Jan Dumon and all I can say is he has a great guy with an amazing family and lives in a very very special place.

I also spent time bow hunting in the Westen side of the Limpopo Province...

These are some of the photos taken and I will add more here as I get time to edit.

I used a Canon 70D and Sigma 150-600 Sport lens...

While all the photos are very nice, I really enjoy the Cape Buffalo and Red-Billed Oxpecker shot.

Thank you,

The red-billed oxpecker's are one of my favorite bird species.

But can be a challange as they and the animals they are sitting on are usually moving around.
