Pale Chanting Goshawks are another species that keeps treating me to great sightings. I sat with this one for about 10 minutes before it decided to leave. #centralkalahari #kalahari #botswana #africa #animal #bird #nature #wildlife #birdphotography #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #animalphotography #palechantinggoshawk #palechanting #goshawk #birdofprey
