wildlife of West Africa

Sorry, no elephants or camels, though elephants were seen just down the road from us last weekend, so maybe we'll get lucky one day! First of all, one of our huge rainy season snails. I was concerned its shell was about to fall off, but it seems this was normal:


Next two photos of frogs/toads (I'm no expert) which are lurking near our back door at the moment:



And finally, a baby bat we found which I assume had fallen from a nest (?) in our roof:


And yes, I am enjoying having a camera which can capture real close-ups!

Comment les enfants réagissent-ils devant ces "bêtes" ?
