Eagles!

I had a wonderful afternoon at a nearby neighbor's house today!

X is for eXotic

These eXotic animals aren't really all that unusual, they are just not ones we see every day. The photos were all taken in Botswana on our 11th trip to southern Africa in 2006. You can see lots more by taking virtual safaris with my journals which can be found on my website: http://www.toogoodoostudios.com
