A Slender-tailed Night-jar snapped on Auto function, hence the red-eye!
A couple of weekends ago, Grant and I visited Amanda and Andre where I photographed "their" African Scops-owl in the garden. As I was doing this, several little cats crept up onto the lawn behind us. (Amanda feeds them, so of course they're going to favor her garden!)

Several feral cats which Amanda is feeding in her garden; this seems to be a mother and two kittens

that little red eye bird is adorable.. at first i thought his eyes were truly red... the kittens are so cute. and these photos are so much better than TV ... it is great your grands are growing up without TV it will not harm them at all...
ReplyDeleteThe dik dik looks very sweet and I love the kitties and birds too. :)
ReplyDeleteThose cats are cute, but if they're feral then they probably aren't friendly. That bird with the red-eye looks demonic!
ReplyDeletenot heard of spurfowl before - great to see them
ReplyDeleteInteresting critters. I love the night jar.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the Nightjar, it is really difficult to find them.
ReplyDeleteA great variety of critters Jo! Your cats are so sweet!
