Phil's just back from Tanzania, where he discovered - among other things - why water buck are so named.
Captions, please …
A select selection of postcards from darkest Africa to follow over the next few posts, courtesy of my little brother and his spiffy new camera (Canon EOS60D, like mine, only with the bigger lens, dammit).

Lovely… hope you have the Kingfisher ones! Glad he did have the zoom lens, as some of the animals looked dangerous!
These ones are certainly dangerous; stand too close and you're going to get wet.
You should click on the photo to enlarge it before you type "Lovely" hee hee.
Yes, I have the kingfisher ones. When I get to those I'll send you some high resolution copies.
Oh yes I did have a grin as saw the waterfall in unison!,but meant the water buck were lovely. Ha ha.
They're weird; they have targets painted on their bottoms.
Could the the buck have been among god's projects when he was working to create both the sphincter and the concept of the moving target?
Maybe he was working on continuous drainage of condensed water before he realized it could become an issue in his other creatures. Do they have bladders, or sphincters? Or do they just not care?
When the buck run away, do they raise their tails to reveal the bulls' eyes?
I think you could be right, Speedway. Proof that Intelligent Design is not so intelligent after all.
Maybe these bucks had a few extra brews at the local pub :-)
How funny that he caught them in unison!
Looking forward to more unusual photos from Africa....
Recreational peeing. Very canine.
Hee hee, Ms.M. I can just picture them, boozing away and arguing like they're in some Larson cartoon.
I think it must be a social thing, Petrea. "Hey, guys! Let's get together and pee."
Typical males.
Hosers.
Hahahaha
