Ted's Excellent Pictures Taken in Botswana
Chobe National Park & River
November 2018


Happy Hippy Hippopotami (or, if you prefer, Hippopotamuses) in the Chobe River(*)
By the way - the name Hippopotamus comes from the ancient Greek for 'River Horse'
(* The part of the Chobe near where it meets the Zambezi River and what may be the world's only Four-nation Quadripoint - yes, I was there too)
That tickles!



When you're smiling - the whole world smiles with you



I'm smiling because Ben & Jerry's is on sale! See ya later, alligator!



I'm back - where were we?



Don't tell the wife - I ate the whole thing!



I'm walkin' here!





African Jacana: Ministry of Silly Walks

















Long-toed Lapwing



Great Egret



Yellow-billed Stork





African Darter



Egyptian Geese looking for their mummy





You'd look like this too, if you were saddled with the name Water Thick-Knee Dikkop Burhinus Vermiculatus

(Or maybe they just look exasperated because they're married with a teenager)



Pied Kingfisher





Little Bee-eater





Malachite Kingfisher





African Fish-Eagles





Tch! I just washed these claws!







Adult Goliath Heron



Tawny Eagle







African Skimmers having a laugh



Waterbucks having a joust

I guess they no longer see eye-to-eye



Pass me the remote control - there's got to be something better on







What the ... ?















Crikey! I'm a crocodile, okay? - Alligators suck






A face only a mudder could love



There goes the neighbourhood



Ready for the mud pack



The family that muds together, stays together







What a cheeky kid - he's mooning me!



What's that smell? B.O.?                            Ew - it's beyond B.O.!                            Look at the guy on that boat do his elephant impression!



This is how elephants give tourists the finger



Let's blow this pop stand
