The oryx has become one of my favorite animals in Namibia. Their signature face mask and unique markings together with spiraled horns give them an appearance unlike any other subspecies of antelope, and their ability to go a month without drinking water demonstrates their adaptability to this extreme environment. It is also this vast, dry environment that makes for stunning photos, showcasing the scale and barren landscape in which the oryx and other species have thrived, whereas most life forms would quickly perish.
I've got a lot to share from my three weeks in southern Africa, both from Namibia with Nat Expo Tours and Kruger National Park, SA, so please stay tuned...
Cheers!
