Default More wildlife pix
Here are some more pix from the fossil rim wildlife center in Glenrose TX. I didn't know it at the time but these are my last photos taken with my original Canon digital Rebel. I have now upgraded to the Rebel xsi, which is a fabulous camera that I absolutely love. I'll be posting pix I've taken with that in the near future.

Thanks Leona and Toyvlle for the great comments. Toyvlle, the ones in the first shot are called "Aoudads". I don't know how to pronounce it but thats what they're called.

Leona, how do you pronounce "Aoudad", also is the Gemsbok pronounced with a hard g or soft g?
