No springbok? What camera & lens combo did you use?

Curiously, their closest living relatives are giraffes.

They are very tasty. ;)

1) Impala are “the KFC of the bush.”
2) …the young lady. (reference to picture credits)

The first made me guffaw. The second made me feel ancient. When I started reading this blog, she was The Kid. Now she’s a young lady. Has it really been 8 years? Boohoohoo…

I’m sure you’ve looked into it but thought I’d protectively suggest for you to use watermarks on your photos (perhaps not all, but selected), to protect you from (illegal) download and use of photos without proper credits. Our company is involved in several legal cases protecting the works of our international photographers, and there are other firms that can track the download of their photos and subsequent use.

And then there’s the food and wine at reasonable prices…..

Apparently they were once so prolific like the bison that even a place is named after them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antelope,_Kansas

MM, although I like zoology in college,I don’t think I’m brave enough to have close encounters with wildlife sans the bars! I assumed you brought telephoto lens to get pictures like these!
