Etosha in Christmas

Early morning the day before Christmas…

2401

Into Etosha and first finding was this giraffe.2403

There has been a few early rains and they gave us this beautiful background colour for the zebras.2404

But the rain also makes waterholes less interesting for the animals.2405

Luckily we saw animals “everywhere” so we could also care less for the waterholes.2406

Kori Bustard – the heaviest living animal capable of flight!

2407

Even heavier, but not capable of flight is the Ostrich.2408

An avid runner though!2410

A reminder that Etosha is not a Zoo. It’s for real!2411

A Tawny Hawk? No – Tawny Eagle! (Thanks Marcia…)2413

Lappet-faced Vulture?

Visiting Etosha in the rainy season is supposed to be a bad choice but we were very happy with the hours here!
