Indigenous to East and Southern Africa (Flora, Fauna & Wilderness only)

About This Group

Welcome to the Indigenous to East & Southern Africa Group!
We don’t have too many rules – they are listed on the next page. Please read them!
We are basically all about Indigenous flora, fauna and scenery in the following 15 countries of East & Southern Africa: Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe, and in the islands of Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Réunion, Seychelles and Zanzibar.
Please note particularly that we do not accept images of man-made objects or of humans – please keep your submissions to wildlife, flora and scenery. There is some amazing work to be seen here and we’d love to see yours as well.

The featured work you see above is changed every two weeks. The images are the choices of one or other of your hosts. Every day, there is superb work submitted to the group, so the task of featuring just twelve is not easy.
At the same time, two that are personal favourites of the host making the choices are added to the home page to be featured large for two weeks.
This time around, the two extra favourites are:
Pied Kingfisher 2 by Warren A Williams

and
I Love You Mum by Emma Gilette

The current group avatar is A Young Lion Cub – This is the life by Jozi1

This image was the joint winner in the group’s January 2012 Avatar challenge and will be the Group’s Avatar until the end of July 2012.
