A single frame from a fabulous sighting we as a family enjoyed in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (Kalahari desert) in January of this year, during one of the worst heat waves to hit Southern Africa (the temperatures reached 50-54 Celcius by 10am and after sunset most days it was still 38-40 Celcius).
This honey badger managed to dig up a small leopard tortoise shortly after sunrise, and had a bit of a challenge getting to the good bits inside. He figured it out in the end. Techs: Nikon D4s Nikkor 400mm f2.8G VR 1.4x teleconverter f6.3 | 1/800 SS | ISO-8000 (being on auto ISO in manual mode I normally don't even look at the ISO - I did change my settings shortly after this frame to a lower SS to drop the ISO I was getting) Morkel Erasmus
