Beisa oryx are another of the specialty species found in Kenya’s Samburu National Reserve. They are a medium-sized antelope listed as endangered due to a reduction in numbers and range. It was the middle of the long rains when we visited Samburu in April and the oryx really stood out against all the green foliage. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 500, f/5.6 at 1/800th of a second.

What a stunner! Such amazing markings – outstanding in its field, so to speak. Beautiful image, Sean!
That is one handsome creature! The graphic color markings are beautiful, as well as those amazing horns! He’s a very regal looking antelope!
