I have filled in on some of the tree trunk and gradually filling in the rest of the flowers and leaves. Slowly getting nearer to the birds, but a lot of filling in on the background still to do. It all takes time and patience.
Driving through the game parks you never know what you will be lucky enough to see.
From zebra, moving around in their pyjamas. Gazelle leaping about, little dick-dicks, grumpy old buffalo, and the different kinds of buck and antelope that are around.
This was our pet dick-dick which was rescued from a fire where it's mother was killed. We named it Bambi and brought it up on a bottle. It grew up to full size and was a real little rascal. Loved hiding in the bushes in the garden and racing out to head butt you. Here is Bambi with our daughter as a tiny baby. Unfortunately was killed several years later by a pack of wild dogs that broke into his house at night.
My painting of the zebra.
Sorry there will be no blog next week as I am away visiting family. Will be back as usual the following week.
Take care and see you soon.
