This October, my family and I had the good fortune to be able to visit South Africa. We spend about 2 weeks in various parts of the country from Johannesburg, south to Creighton, east to St. Lucia and Hluhluwe Nature Preserve, the finally north to Kruger National Park for the last 5 days.
We saw hundreds of bird species as well as dozens of animals, most of which were completely new to us. There were so many interesting, new, unusual animals, that I found it hard to narrow it down for the website. I created 2 galleries – one for birds and one for animals – to let those “non-bird” friends of mine go through the photos a little faster. But, I promise that there are some STRANGE looking birds that are worth seeing!
