Springbok seen from the shop

Earlier this week a small group of Spingbok walked up along the fence of the sports resort across the road from the shopping center. What a privilege to view wildlife from the comfort of my workplace. 




 I loved this shot where two deer meet up and touch noses


 The springbok is a medium-sized antelope found mainly in southern and southwestern Africa. The sole member of the genus Antidorcas, this bovid was first described by the German zoologist Eberhard August Wilhelm von Zimmermann in 1780.

Here's wishing you a happy Saturday!

    they are amazing, and if i worked with them outside my window i would not get much done. i love the long wavy horns.. they are on the list of animals i have never seen, not even in a zoo. and for that i am thankful they are not in a zoo.

    Hello Jo, they are beautiful critters. I think I have seen similar antelope in our zoo. But, it is much nicer to see them in the wild. Wonderful photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend.
