Animal photo series

Over the years I have taken quite a few photos of animals. Today I want to share some of the more memorable ones with you. Fair warning I like the more creepy animals and they do feature in this post.

1 ~ We visited an animal sanctuary and came across this fella. He was rescued from bad humans, he has a broken back but has healed up. has a chilled life now munching on all the fruits he can find.

And thes are a few of his other lizard buddies. The day was quite chilly and they seemed a bit camera shy.

3 ~ One of the best photographs I’ve taken with my phone. This majestic animal I believe is an kudu or eland. I forget. And of course did not label the photographs properly.

Here we have a spring buck, kudus, zebras, some tiny deer and another eland

4 ~ These are ostriches. Stating the obvious, but they are really big birds and super fast.

Some feathered friends.

Sometimes I totally forget to check the settings on my camera. I have taken great photographs only to find them out of focus! I annoy myself. But I suppose this is the only way to learn.

5 ~ I know people think spiders are creepy but I find them rather beautiful.

Some other creepy creatures from the same habitat.
