We were birding and looking for big game at the Goas Waterhole the morning of August 17, 2012, when Brad photographed this Greater Kudu, Tragelaphus strepsiceros. The male shown here is distinguished by spiral horns which can reach lengths of over a meter. Six to ten pale thin stripes that stand out against its grayish body also help to identify this antelope. A crest of hair runs along the middle of the back to form a mane. A distinct white band runs along the brow between the eyes. This is an impressive animal. Temperatures were in the upper 80's on this beautiful morning with clear blue skies.
