Natal Francolin
These birds normally disappear into the grass as soon as the camera comes out.
I was quite surprised when this one let me park so close and even posed for the shot!
 I took a quick drive to the game reserve this afternoon - in at 16:30 & out at 17:30!
In that hour I saw plenty of  Rhino, Buffalo, Elephant, Giraffe, Zebra, Warthog, Impala and a number of birds.

  2. You are so lucky to be so close to the Game Reserve. Great shot of this francolin. It even has the light in it's eye which I am told is the mark of truly great bird photography. Well done Maggie!
