Addo Trips 2021 with Pete & Jane
Jane and I went to Addo yesterday , our first time since Lock Down and my first with a Mirrorless System>> Thrilled with this camera and lens combo The Nikon Z System. We saw a small group of Buff as we drove in at 7am in perfect light. Addo being far South , the light goes off far Quicker than say Kruger> Pic needs a click to enjoy the light

Brilliant
These horns curve very much upward
Yes, more please and we don't mind seeing some less perfect photos, too

I took a short detour to Arizona dam and on the way back I encountered this old Codger of an Ellie ambling over the hill towards me >> I waited for him to get to a nice low /High position and got this. Could be from Etosha >> Give the old boy with a limp ear and both all tattered a click he will appreciate it
