The Lewis's Woodpecker has been a bit elusive to me but this morning the dry spell came to and end as I discovered a pair with a nest. ENJOY these images.

Animals can often be missed as they lie still and blend into their environment. These deer are in my backyard dispersed in the trees. Notice how they are lying in different directions for predator control.

One of the most efficient predators on earth, the African Wild Dog or Painted Hunting dog (Lycaon pictus) . The success rate of these dogs is 70% to 90% compared to only 30% to 40% for lions. The WIld Dog is native to Sub-Saharan Africa. Approximately 6600 remain in the wild in some 39 sub-populations. The largest numbering less than 250 individuals. Packs range from 5 to 20 animals but packs of 60 have been recorded.

The pack interactions are amazing to observe as are the hunting strategies. Each animals markings are unique and the patterns are quite stunning. Wild Dogs are one of the very few canines to have never been domesticated even though numerous attempts have been made. Enjoys these images from 20 years of journeying to Africa.

I've been test driving canon's 200-800. Primarily for video but, stills are always a possibility. I've found both pro's and cons, now do the pro's outweigh the cons. Still deciding.

Here's a couple images from the test.

And now the last of the Big Five, the Rhinoceros. Of the 5 species of Rhinoceros, 2 call sub Saharan Africa home. The White Rhino and the rarer Black Rhino. The white are grazers while the black are browsers. Many of the rhinos have had their horns removed to protect them from poachers. The horns are made from keratin just like your fingernails and grow continuously throughout the animals life.
In the next week or so we'll look at the 2 animals that complete the Magnificent 7, the Cheetah and the African Wild Dog or Painted Hunting Dog. Enjoy!
