Kenya Day 2 morning
A gory start to the day. A Martial Eagle had killed and was eating this baby impala. The eagle flew off and had a pretty huge wing span.
A Yellow-throated Sandgrouse.
Give way to the elephant! An adult can easily tip the jeep over. They weigh twice as much.
A couple of buffaloes giving us the stare.
The Grey crowned Crane.
A giraffe strolling along.
An African Fish-Eagle.
Yay, a proper sighting of a rhino. This one is only four years old.
Some elephants being followed by their attending birds.
A solitary Topi.
A couple of warthogs obviously lost a game of Truth or Dare and are advancing on a sleeping lion to see how close they can get!
The sleeping lion. They get more adventurous later in the day.
A pool of hippos.
A close up.
You only see how big they are out of the water.
A lioness.
A giraffe having a feed.
Two common ostriches.
Down in the river a couple of crocodiles.
Look closely here and from right to left there is a hippo, a submerged crocodile and then two cros on the bank.
Half the rocks here are actually hippos!
A couple of giraffes necking.
This may look cute, but this is how they fight for dominance. Very polite. They take turns until one gives up.
A baby elephant struggling to get out of the mud.
A long drive this morning, around four and a half hours. We saw a lot in that time though.
