Ugandan Kob, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda

Africa is full of different species of antelope. To the Ugandan’s, however, the kob is special among them. It’s the national animal and appears on the coat of arms. This image of a winking male kob was one of my first award winners about ten years ago. Searching my site tonight, I realized that I never posted it to the photo of the day, so here it is. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 400, f/5.6 at 1/100th of a second.
