a herd of Grévy's Zebras in the Laikipia area in Kenya

 

from Wikipedia:

"A mineral lick (also known as a salt lick) is a place where animals can go to lick essential mineral nutrients from a deposit of salts and other minerals. Natural licks are common, and they provide essential elements such as phosphorus and the biometals (sodium, calcium, iron, zinc, and trace elements) required for bone, muscle and other growth in herbivorous mammals such as deer, moose, elephants, hippos, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, tapirs, woodchucks, fox squirrels, mountain goats, porcupines, and frugivorous bats. Such licks are especially important in ecosystems such as tropical rainforests and grasslands with poor general availability of nutrients."

 

WITH LESS THAN 2000 still living in the wild according to the IUCN Red List the Grevy's Zebra is listed as ENDANGERED

 

It is the tallest of all zebras and of all living species of wild equids. Some of the distinctive features are well visible in this image:

A large and long head with huge ears that are round

Narrow and closely spaced stripes

No stripes on the belly

A tall and erect mane that extends into a black stripe on the top of the body

De buizerd is de meest voorkomende roofvogel van Nederland. Op warme dagen is de buizerd vaak hoog in de lucht te zien, waar de vogel in cirkels op de opstijgende warme lucht zweeft. Als het weer hiervoor niet geschikt is, dan jaagt de vogel zittend vanaf een hoge uitkijkpost

Een Roodkopklauwier zit qua formaat tussen een Grauwe Klauwier en Klapekster in. De soort komt als broedvogel voornamelijk voor in Zuid-Europa, vanaf Midden-Frankrijk en verder zuidwaarts. Het zijn trekvogels die in Zuid Afrika overwinteren en doorgeschoten trekvogels op weg terug worden (vooral in mei) nog wel eens in Nederland gezien.
