The pattern on the posterior of the Common Waterbuck gives the impression that the animal had an unfortunate encounter with a freshly-painted toilet seat. As their name suggests these large, gregarious antelope are never found far from a permanent water source.
“Pattern” is the theme for this week’s WordPress Photo Challenge

That was fun. It must be wonderful to see them in the wild like that. I’ve seen elk, moose, deer, etc. and it’s always a great experience.

Yes, it is wonderful to enjoy all these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat! There’s many wild animals in your part of the world that we’d also love to encounter one day, like the ones you’ve mentioned.
