Their 3-week journey of over 1300 miles\, a good portion over gravel roads driving from lodge-to-lodge\, took them through magnificent desert and coastal dunes\, barren deserts\, rocky scrub\, and flat acacia thornscrub teeming with game. While at the lodges they did game drives\, a little bit of walking\, sitting in waterhole hides\, and relaxing. Of course\, a lot of birding and photography was involved. Jerry will present highlights of the many birds and other animals he was able to photograph on this trip\, and offer his perspective on the sights and sounds of this part of Africa. \nWhen not birding or engaged with MDBA goings-on\, Jerry is a mostly-retired independent contractor/consultant in the fields of optical coatings and diffractive optic design and manufacture. He retired from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 2016 after a 30+ year career as a chemical engineer.
