Etosha National Park Revisited…

You guessed it, boys and girls, I don’t have any pictures from Estabrook Park today, and the reason is that I’m traveling again, but this time it’s just a little hop out east to meet up with some old high school buddies. So, while I’m sitting in airports and on airplanes today, it seems like the perfect opportunity to sift through a few more pictures of the amazing wildlife we got to see in Namibia’s Etosha National Park.

I had these pictures all picked out this morning, before I left, and my plan was to add some entertaining words along the way, but you know what they say about plans. Now it’s late, my host is fixing us some supper, and I’m gonna have to let these pretty birds speak for themselves. Sorry about that. They’re all from Etosha, and they’re all on the ground, except for the crow, because there are some but not a lot of trees there.
