We have seen lots of wild life and livestock since arriving in Swaziland. On a daily basis we see cows, donkeys, dogs, goats and a variety of birds. On rare occasions we see some more unique animals. We have visited two of the game reserves since arriving and have seen a variety of African animals. Here are some of the animal we have seen so far.
Lots of deer like creatures:
Blesbok
Blue Wildebeest
Nyala
Impala Female
Impala Male
Kudu
Common Reedbuck
A couple more birds (I am leaving the names off for my father-in-law. He asked for some more birds to identify!):
This is the nest of the bird above – how unique? They fly through the little hole in the bottom.
Some unique finds:
Southern Tree Agama
Rock Monitor – Mikayla is not the unique find!
Animals you think of when you think of Africa:
Warthog – terrible picture, but man those suckers are fast!
Ostrich
Zebra
And of course giraffes! We have lots of these pictures, but here are just a few!
Seriously, how could someone not think these are beautiful!
I love this picture because it reminds me of our little family. Daddy and Mommy giraffe on the left and Mikayla giraffe on the right. Silly? Yes, but still fun!
