...and look what was sitting on a lamp post in the road. Early morning and my habit is to always open the curtains when I sit down in our study. And so, when I saw the bird on the lamb post, it galvanised

There are always rare moments that you only capture in its fleeting nature. That is, you cannot relive the moment, and once it happens, it happens really quickly. When birds of prey land on our roof, or

The sky was a beautiful blue, and I could feel that my camera was very happy. Look how luxuriously he stretches his leg in the photo above. First up is the famous Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), world

Not every day that you will see this, and I was so happy to get it. Freedom! I think someone captured this Jackal Buzzard (Buteo Rufofuscus), and it freed itself. I cannot for a moment think why anyone

I think that the new youngster was hassling his mom for food. Young and beautiful! You can see that its head was still developing. The African harrier-hawk, harrier hawk or gymnogene (Polyboroides typus)

At first when I saw the falcon far away, it looked like some kind of cloth that it had. But as it came closer high up ((photo above), I saw the sun dried skins coming off a live wriggling snake. Squamates

The closest most of us will get to birds of prey, are sadly in rehabilitation centres. Just like the artificial wild nature reserves available for people to drive through and see these "wild"

At first he had breakfast, then a drink, and then a bath. I think that is a big rock lizard that he caught, but I cannot be sure. How about that? A rock kestrel catching a rock lizard:)) At first, we thought

And he even posed for me for a while, until a crowd arrived. We were driving on a narrow single lane road, and thankfully my wife saw him, as he sat on a tree at the car's passenger side. So, I slammed

On Friday morning I was up at 4AM and got the post up, cleaned the kitchen, and messed around on the computer trying to create a new home page for my browser. It had been a long time since I’d done that

Not every day that you will see something like this. A juvenile African Harrier Hawk (Polyboroides typus) was scratching around for rodent nests on the husks of a high palm tree trunk. I know that they

The call gave them away, as when I heard it, I was out in a flash. The female African Harrier Hawk (Polyboroides typus) was scouting around for a new nesting place. I knew how to find them, as they love

Birds of prey have become scarce, as we are moving closer to winter. Most of the predators have moved higher to the warmer countries up north in the African continent. But we are lucky, as some of the

Although junior can already hunt for his own prey, mom is still around to keep an eye. I got this lovely view of junior coming over and this predator is a Harrier Hawk. (Polyboroides typus). But it is

Time is not on our side, as thus far this week things are going a bit crazy. The sun and clouds were also playing tricks on us, as one moment it was light and the next it was dark. That is what a strong

No small birds like to see this guy around, as there will surely be some killing going on. We have seen one on the farm in the past, lifting a hadeda ibis baby out of a nest and it is not a good memory.

Come and let's watch some Jackal Buzzards doing their thing in the sky. The jackal buzzard (Buteo rufofuscus) is a fairly large African bird of prey. The taxonomy of this species has caused some confusion

Greetings, Fellow Feathered Flying Object Identifiers Of Various Success! Do you suppose that's an eagle? Because I do. There are many birds of prey in our region, and you can detect them often while driving

I happened to see this young juvenile "Cooper's Hawk" land right outside my kitchen window while making chocolate chip cookies this morning. I've had one come and visit the Hemlock tree before

Hello everyone, friends, how are you today, I hope you will continue to be happy today, Best wishes and happy greetings, of course, as we hope for the future, and in this case, we really hope that we can
