AMAZING how our guide spotted this small very shy Chameleon high up a tree on a night drive, hence not a very good quality image, active in the night, feeding on insects, and regrettably one of the most sort after reptiles in the pet trade, but protected on this South Luangwa National Park.

THANK YOU for your visit and kind comments, will it ever stop raining in the U.K., will be back in the Gambia in Africa again in three weeks, to photograph the birds, and enjoy that thing called the sun, not seen in Kent for ages.
Keep safe and well, God bless...................................Tomx
The geese are back, hurray! As always, one or another is always in a flap about something.
Thank you for taking the time to view this image and for leaving me a comment! have a great day and weekend!
This title is probably a misnomer. It implies that the Blue Jay is preparing to land, when in actuality it is just taking off with a sunflower seed in its beak. However, having caught the bird with its wings in downward motion, I am hoping this title will fly (pun intended.)

Harbor seals, Phocidae family, also called “common” or “hair” seals by some locals. They are covered with short, stiff, bristle-like hair. Coloration varies, but two basic patterns occur: light gray sides and belly with dark blotches or spots, or a dark background with light rings. They can be distinguished from other pinnipeds, such as fur seals and sea lions, by the absence of external ear flaps; only a small hole (the external pinnae, or opening to the ear canal) is visible on either side of their head. Harbor seals are mammals and therefore breathe air, but they are well adapted to life in the ocean.
The first white settlers to Alaska in the 1700s established a massive fur trade based on the pelts of harbor seals and nearly wiped them out completely, but since the Marine Mammal Protection Act, their numbers have rebounded and are now estimated at between 200,000-300,000.

Taken back in 2019 I only got around to looking through these shots yesterday. This cuckoo was coming in to land on his favourite post.
