On safari, not many people bother with the francolins that always seem to be scurrying out of the way as we drive toward a lion, leopard or some other big ticket item. I like to capture everything, and made sure I got out of the vehicle and down on the ground for a better perspective of this red-billed francolin. Photographed in the Linyanti Concession of northern Botswana. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 400, f/4 at 1/1000th of a second.
