Let me show ya a few dik-dik pics...

(A few pictures of a Kirk's dik-dik, that is...)

It's been an extended absence from posting for me... during this period, the Pepperpot and I:

• Took a three week vacation to Africa (Kenya and Tanzania).
  
• This had a lot of nice safari watching but was *very* jam packed, more than I would have done. We needed a vacation from this vacation!
  
• Especially since one of my luggage was lot on the way to Africa.
  
• And on the way back to Tampa.
  
• On the way back as well, a flight from JFK to Tampa was cancelled, forcing us to scramble for a hotel at 11PM. (There was so many cancellations, Delta had no space. It was really hard to get a hotel, had to go to Midtown to find one.)
  
• And we both caught COVID the Monday back.
  

So... it took a while for us to get back to somewhat of a "normal routine". (Didn't help that I did a storage unit rental reorganizing / garage clean-out as well in late August/early September, but that was needed!) I think we are mostly in sync now.

One factor is that I'm working on going through the photos (1600+ of them!) a little at a time... so no birdie posts for a bit. Occasionally I'll post a few from the trip when I get a chance.

I had one of them lick my hand long ago. Its tongue darted in and out, not lapping like a dog or cat. Someone in the USA during a family vacation while I was a kid, some preserve or zoo somewhere.

Why I never!! I turn my back one moment and my husband is showing ...Dik (Dik) pics!!! Oh the shame! The scandal!!!

*smirks*

Hey now, don't forget we did find that room thanks to my overhearing skills. Yeah I know it's not a good trait but that did come in handy.

Love that critter's pic!
