When the photo was posted on social media, people immediately began making calls – to the local wildlife rehabilitation center, the state falconry club, and the wildlife division of the state wildlife agency. But since it wasn’t a wild bird and it wasn’t a falconry bird, it wasn’t under anyone’s control.
The route Corey and I took in advance of the 2019 African Birding Expo may not be the only optimal way to go, but this approach yielded an absolute bounty of wildlife excitement in just 48 action-packed hours. What makes this destination so magnificent? I recommend both, but either should net you Rock Pratincole , a cool falls specialty.
A question I am frequently asked by birders and wildlife enthusiasts is: “ if I only visit Africa once, where should I go ?” Highly recommended birding and wildlife sites include Selous Game Reserve, the Eastern Arc Mountains, Pemba and Zanzibar Islands and Arusha National Park.
Great wildlife preserves, reserves and parks exist for a number of reasons. I never get bored of Giraffes. The park also has Cheetahs and Painted Wolves (and while I didn’t see the later, they are fairly reliable). Springbok were one of my targets, and I got them! Or Cheetahs. A terrible shot of a tiny Lesser Bushbaby in camp.
The house is a four bedroom, four bath two story, with a deck running around three sides of the upper story, great for wildlife viewing. After a very long day of 7 hours of driving, 11 hours flying and then 9 hours more driving, we have arrived at our temporary home here in South Africa. This will act as our base for the next 20 days.
A portion of the proceeds of ticket sales will be donated to AWF through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund to protect the Amboseli Wildlife Corridor. Join the “African Cats” grassroots community and donate to the African Wildlife Foundation on Causes: [link]. This happens during the week of April 18.
And one that is easy to use, because, let’s face it, you want to spend most of your time looking at wildlife, not searching for information. And, with weight allowances what they are, it’s best to take a guide that is light in weight. Animals of Kruger National Park by Keith Barnes is the animal guide I wish I had when I visited South Africa.
Lacey of Iowa introduced the nation’s first wildlife-protection law, which banned the interstate shipping of unlawfully killed game. People don’t respect wildlife. Why would any human being think that killing a Giraffe ( Giraffa ) is a good idea? A newly created U.S. Why is this happening? But I digress.
