  • An old brown hyena ventures into a pan in search of leftovers from predator kills. These extremely hardly carnivores are the ultimate decomposers and can even devour months-old dried out skin and bone. Needless to say, the brownies play a vital role in the fragile Kgalagadi semi-desert ecosystem.

  • Shortly after the first rains, the thoroughly intriguing Giant African Millipede (Archispirostreptus gigas), a.k.a. Shongololo, has emerged from its safe hide-out underground - to feed and to breed. These herbivorous invertebrates are generally harmless creatures, but they do secrete a chemical  substance containing cyanide. This is a defense mechanism against ants and other insects as well as some insect-eating mammals. Its primary defense is to roll up in a tight coil.

  • It is not an every day occurrence to see a Giant Eagle Owl wading through water! On my recent visit to the Kgalagdi Transfrontier Park I had a serious thunderstorm at night and the first thing I came across after I eagerly started my morning drive was this big bird enjoying the refreshing rain puddles. Shooting was a challenge with the light being still very low, but at least this old wise owl was not bothered by my presence and I managed to get a few images of this unique sighting.

  • Leopard drinking from a kalahari waterhole at dawn
    VGR_20130202_6368.jpg
  • Probably one of the most awesome aspects of wildlife photography is the acceptance by animals into their world. This beautiful female Bateleur allowed me to get closer and closer as she was drinking from a small waterhole. When we arrived there were in fact 6 individuals at the waterhole! All but one took off on the sound of our vehicle, this one however seemed not to care. Call me strange, but the few quiet minutes I spent with this magnificent bird will remain one of those encounters I will cherish forever.
