  • The southern African Bearded Vulture (Gypaetus barbatus) - or Lammergeyer - is currently endangered and likely to become extinct.  Originally common throughout Lesotho, the Free State, Eastern Cape Province and KwaZulu-Natal (along the Maloti-Drakensberg mountains), the Bearded Vulture now only breeds and forages across a fraction of its original range. Current (2011) population estimates are in the region of 100 breeding pairs, down from over 200 pairs 25 years ago.  Here, this rarely-seen vulture-like eagle of Africa catches the sun's first rays while the grassy slopes of the high Drakensberg remain in deep shadow.

  • Sunset silhouette of the Horns, Ukhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Crepuscular rays (God beams) diffracting at the neck between Inner Horn 3005m / 9858ft (left) and Outer Horn 3006m / 9860ft (right).  The saw-tooth profile of tiny peaks to the left is a group called the Chessmen.  Inner Horn was first climbed in 1925; Outer Horn in 1934.  The names are believed to have been derived from the Zulu name for nearby Cathedral Peak.  However, under some lighting conditions, as seen here, the gap between the Horns resembles antlers or deer horns.  One of the last free ranges of the San people or Bushmen, the Drakensberg is steeped in San folk lore.  Nikon F100, 70-300/4-5.6D, Kodak E100VS.

  • Near the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site (where the 2.3-million year-old fossil Australopithecus africanus - nicknamed "Mrs. Ples" - was found in 1947), a Highveld summer sunset is reflected in the pond of a pure spring near Tonquani Kloof in the ancient quartzites of the Magaliesberg mountain range northwest of Johannesburg.  This area has been occupied by humans for more than 2 million years.  The range itself has a much longer geological history that began as sedimentary deposits that were later consolidated and tilted under the forces of a massive upwelling of molten magma.  This view is to the north.  South Africa. Nikon F4, 28-70/3.5-4.5D. Kodak EPP.
