Bird photography
Bird photography
Just random bird photographs taken over the last couple of weeks. Recently, I have been inundated by a flock of Red billed Quelea's that have taken residence close to my home. They are really interesting to watch as they are extremely gregarious by nature and are constantly jostling and bickering with each other. Also, the variety of colors they come in are amazing, red headed breeding males, pink headed juveniles and drab brown females.
Most images were taken with my Canon SL1 (100D).

Lion and Rhino park December 2015
Lion and Rhino park December 2015
Some photos from the Lion and rhino park in Krugersdorp, South Africa.
Canon 100D and 55-250mm Lens used for all shots.
For obvious reasons, the rare and dangerous species have a greater attraction value, and this led to the introduction of lions, cheetah and later, the highly endangered Cape wild dog. The latter have formed part of a very successful breeding programme which has, in turn, led to breeding programmes for Bengal tigers, Siberian Tigers and the extremely rare White Lion (one of which was born at the reserve in 1999). These activities have seen the staff complement at the reserve grow from 5 to 39 people employed on a full time basis.

Canon 100D bird photography
Canon 100D bird photography
Just some garden birds shot the Canon 100D and 55-250mm EF-S lens. Considering the price of this lens, I am very impressed with the sharpness that it produces. Focus can be a little on the slow side but overall, it's a very good medium telephoto lens.

Golden Weaver bird. This industrious fellow has now built 6 nests in 2 trees in my garden in the hopes of attracting a female. A few females do come and inspect his work but they are extremely picky!

Canon SX50HS photos
Random Images from my Canon SX50HS camera. These birds are very seldom seen in my garden, they must be here due to the severe drought that has gripped most of South Africa.
