Gemsbok

We took a few days and visited a local game reserve. Had a wonderful time and I must now go through all my pictures!

very nice capture, it's looking at you as if you're an afterthought.

Great backdrop, Sally!

Super shot, Sally. My wife's sister lives in Plettenburg Bay and they go off to Game Parks once or twice a year. They love them.

[Sally Ings]

@gooner46 A visit to a game park is such a wonderful way to get some down time. We are lucky enough to have many parks to choose from. This one is about 4 hours drive away from where we live.

[Sally Ings]

@kwiksilver Lol, it does seem that way doesn't it! I was a wee tad further south though!

[Sally Ings]

@ericdibosco Can never go wrong with mountains as a backdrop, can you?

[seasnappi]

[Paula W]

I've never heard of a Gemsbok, amazing creature.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Captivating shot of such a unique animal. So after my reading, I'm thinking this is a female because the horns are not straight? Whatever he/she may be, it's an amazing animal! fav

[Pam Knowler]

Fabulous beast and wonderful backdrop!! Fav!!
