Wordless Wednesday-Heat Wave

Magpie

~~~~~

After four days, during which the maximum temperature averaged over forty degrees, and maxed out at nearly forty-five…

we noticed this magpie and his mate eyeing off a cool drink.

While its mate stood guard our maggie took its time… 

selecting just the right spot to take a sip.

Why it did not drink from the deeper pool is beyond me…

but it took several long sips not fussed about its audience.

A-Z Challenge-DDD

2014

~~~~~

Just realised that my post is a week late

DDD was where I entered the A-Z  Challenge last year.

So for 2014 D Challenge, I have…

an airborne Duiker.

~~~~~

And of course a farm boy would always noticed the bits of dung in the paddock.  However, sheep cannot produce as well as elephants do, do, do…

~~~~~

One dwarf mongoose.

He was first line of defence if the rest of the family, up the tree, appeared in danger.  With a guard like this we did not dare venture any closer.

His eyes are bulging because he caught a glimpse of the photo above…

Last, but not least, a dribbling giraffe, courtesy MGW.
