Description
We caught this small herd of Blue Wildebeest one morning on their way from their morning drink. They are truly ugly creatures and great lion food in the Kgalagadi. I have a close-up of one that I will post soon.
This is three images stitched in Photoshop.
Do zoom for a better view!
Thank you for popping in and for your very welcome comments and favs on my last upload "Taking a Sand bath".

I gnu you were going to say they are ugly!! Nice work and shot Carin.
Excellent capture!
nice, I would love to see such animals in the wild again.
I don't think they are ugly at all! Wonderful photo.
Fine shot & I agree with durleybeachbum - "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder"...
only wild life we get out here are deers and bunnies and elk and and alot of black bears ... how exciting to see them all together.
A beautiful Pano showing wonderful animals in the wild, they may not be the prettiest animal on the planet but they have their niche :) Excellent shots Carin
Great panorama you put together. A hard life for these beasts, some look so thin.
So beautiful creatures and very beautifully captured. Looks hot there.
WONDERFUL WORK
the hunter in me is deciding which one should go down and the photographer in me is deciding which one would get posted Great capture Carin
Wonderful to see this; I don't think they're ugly, they have lovely legs ;P Great shot!!
Put me with Andrea, Claude and Denise. I don't find them ugly in the least! I loved seeing this in zoom ... doing a pano was inspired. Brilliant shot, Dierbaar!
amazing pano, Carin!
Americans tend to obsess on certain things and these obsessions are fed by our commercial television stations. So when the Los Angeles Zoo acquired two Wildebeests they advertised by reminding us of three of our top obsessions. The ad read "Come to the Los Angeles Zoo and see our Gnus, Weather and Sports. I saw one eaten during my long ago trip to Kenya. Sometimes I think that's the only reason they exist, to serve as dinner for the lions. They are rather charming in their ugliness.
The first time we got computers and was able to monitor a water hole on the internet, we were so thrilled to see these animals. And here you are, live and at the scene..... Nice capture. Aloha
Very nicely done!!

Superbly captured, great panoramic scene!
