they call this male Cheetah in the Kwara concession due to his special abilities. He´s often found climbing trees which is unusual for a Cheetah.

The pied kingfisher ( ceryle rudis ) is the most common african kingfisher.it can be found wherever there is water..and not only freshwater...they can live also along the sea coast and inside harbours.this kingfisher is arrived in europe too coming from middle east.as first in greece and some individuals are arrived in south east italy too.
For sure the high adaptability is the key to its success.
This is a male.it can be recognized as the double black band in the breast.

This is the most amusing squirrel I've ever seen (and I've rehabbed many). He is totally wild, yet seemed perfectly comfortable with me coming within 3 feet of him, then he would drop down like a platypus and stay in that position until I tried to move closer. This sequence continued through about 4 of my approaches. I've seen squirrels lie like this on tree branches before, but never on the ground. I think this may be a cooling off mechanism??
He was the first love of my lady swan friend. A very gentle swan, before he became otherwise known as Mr Scarface.
The pair of them had a honeymoon year together; then a brood of cygnets each Spring, for four years.
They loved their lake, and used to troop to the harbour (part of the lake's landed property back then!) with their young. So I could run into them anywhere, from near the lake to a couple of miles upharbour.
Southern yellow-billed hornbills (Tockus leucomelas) are widespread across southern Africa, living mainly in the savannah bushveld, dry thorn fields, deciduous woodlands, and scrubs. These omnivorous birds are sometimes called 'flying bananas' because of their huge yellow bills. Madikwe Game Reserve, North-West Province, South Africa. Conservation Status: Least Concern

a white fronted bee eater (merops albicollis).
this kind of bee eater con be found in south africa all the year around.it's a lovely bird and in some areas quite common.
in photography the hardest part is in this case to get the details of the white front.the whites are very easy to be "fired" especially in canon.take care on exposure!

Spring came early in this region of Portugal. We were foraging mushrooms and a friend decided to show me around. Here we are in a beautiful farm somewhere in the valley of the mountains. As we descended on a 4X4 to the farm I felt like sitting in the cinema being transported to another realm as usually seen on cinematography. It was magical. I will certainly return here again when the weather is more permitting to shoot more images.

McArthur Island park,
Kamloops, B.C.
I spotted this fellow while taking my almost daily walk around the island. The park is only a few minutes drive from my place and to think I only started going there about a month ago! It's a treasure of a place.
Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata)
Lovely to see a good number of 'Zebbies' around Sneydes Rd. yesterday.

Momotus aequatorialis (Andean motmot / Barranquero)
The Andean Motmot, as the English name implies, is the Andean representative of the "Blue-crowned Motmot" complex. For many years, all members of this group were considered to be conspecific, but this group now is reclassified as representing five different species. The Andean Motmot occurs in humid montane forests of the Andes mountains of South America, from Colombia south to Bolivia. Andean motmot is a big bird about 50 cm from beak to tail.
These birds often sit still, and in their dense forest habitat can be difficult to see, despite their size. They eat small prey such as insects and lizards, and will also regularly take fruit.
