This month I have featured the Nyala antelope for my In Touch With Nature post. It is an interesting antelope as it has the highest sexual dimorphism (difference between males and females) of all antelope.
Thanks for hosting, Kaye Lynne Booth.

Fascinating about the nyala, and great poems. You made a good point in the second one about how unattended fires not put out properly cause devastation.

Hi Andrew, that was really the purpose of the poem. Bush fires are devastating, killing animals and destroying property. I’m pleased you enjoyed the buck.

The post is terrific, Robbie!
I forgot to mention in my comment at Kaye Lynne’s how much I enjoyed the poems. It’s been awhile since I read Lion Scream. It was nice to read poems from it, again.
Thank you!

Quite informative. Loving the photos and the video.
Females begin mating at 14 months? These creatures really need to be protected, though. They are so beautiful
