He took all day to find on my last day in Samburu. Skittish gerenuk and a single vehicle that had spotted him as he broke cover gave him away. We watched him hunt as the sun dropped until we were told politely by a ranger that we should not still be out at that time. Very good looking cat.

After we had watched the african sun drop below the hills in Samburu we raced back along the river to find the lions that we had missed earlier. The light was almost gone and I had to rely on high iso, slow shutter speeds and hoped the animals didn’t move too quickly to get a few shots.

How close can you go? I had lots of close encounters with elephants in Samburu. Just sit in the car and a herd will wander by as they munch their way through the foliage. This little guy just didn’t want us to go and gave us a little display while we waited.

I have made several attempts to see Gerenuk over the years but have never been successful. This year I decided as I was already close by that I would head for Samburu where seeing a Gerenuk is almost a certainty. I was not disappointed.

Watching the african sun drop below the hills in Samburu. A little earlier a herd of elephants had moved across the scene way beyond the palm trees and caused a lovely cloud of dust. I was too far away to get any shots.

This is the male cheetah that I have already posted a few high key shots of. This is when we first caught up with him first thing in the morning and he did move around a little. There were a few cars at the sighting which made it difficult to get a good uncluttered shot as he wove between the vehicles. He didn’t move far.

Samburu is a lovely place to watch elephants. We watched this pair meet and greet each other as they crossed the dried riverbed. The larger one chased the smaller one and then they tussled a little before eventually settling into an embrace.

Another High key shot of the male cheetah sitting still and observing in the tall grass. I had plenty of time to play around with different ideas for the exposure and composition. In this one I also managed to capture something flying in front of him. NOt exactly sure what it is as it’s tiny but I dodged it a little to make it stand out more.

That bull elephant in musth again. This guy was following a herd of matriarchs and their herd. Keeping an eye on a young bull family member and making sure he kept back from the rest of the herd. At some point the herd slowed down and the bull decided to get a little amorous with this termite mound where he snuggled it with his trunk, dry humped it and then scratched his butt on it.

A lovely sight of a Somali Ostrich couple and their charge. Ostriches tend to lay their eggs and leave them with a caretaker couple who hatch the whole brood and look after them as one large family.
Here we have the female being followed by the chicks, they shortly deviated from the path and started to follow the male.

Sizable herd of elephants walking, mid morning, with purpose. Possibly heading down to the river for a drop to drink or just trying to evade an amorous bull that was in musth and following them. We just sat and watched them pass in a matter of minutes.

A common visitor to the breakfast table after a morning’s game drive. Always looking for a stray crumb or an opportunity to dip its beak in the butter. This one posed for me on the handle of my camera bag. I think I should have paid for its services as I discovered a nice streak of bird poop down the bag when I left for my tent.

A nice male Grévy's zebra on a foothill enjoying some grass.
Grévy's zebra is the largest living wild equid and the most threatened of the species. It is found in parts of Kenya and Ethiopia. Grévy's zebras' physical features can help to identify it from the other zebra species; their overall appearance is slightly closer to that of a mule, compared to the more "equine" (horse) appearance of the plains and mountain zebras. Compared to other zebra species, Grévy's are the tallest; they have mule-like, larger ears, and have the tightest stripes of all zebras. They have distinctively erect manes, and more slender snouts.
The Grévy's zebra live in semi-arid savanna, where they feed on grasses, legumes, and browse, such as acacia; they can survive up to five days without water. They differ from the other zebra species in that they do not live in a harem, and they maintain few long-lasting social bonds. Stallion territoriality and mother–foal relationships form the basis of the social system of the Grévy's zebra. In its native home this zebra is listed by the IUCN as endangered. Its population has declined from 15,000 to 2,000 since the 1970s. In 2016, the population was reported to be "stable"; however, as of 2020, the wild numbers are still estimated at only around 2,250 animals.

Watched this youngster fight with whatever it had caught for some time. Its mother was trying to help but the little terror just kept running away and throwing it’s prey onto the gravel while shaking its head. I’ve tried to capture the motion but I don't think it translates too well to a tiny SM image.
