The world as I see it
The lilac-breasted roller is the national bird of Kenya and is a common bird on the African savannah. Besides Kenya, it is quite common in Zimbabwe, Botswana, northeastern South Africa, and much of Namibia, excluding the Namib Desert. It is very colorful and actually has 8 different colors - green, white, black, yellow, turquoise, dark …
A crossing gets very chaotic with wildebeest jumping in the water, landing on each other, and going as fast as they can to get to the other side. I'm surprised we didn't see more injuries than we did.
More of the wildebeest crossing. Another name for the wildebeest is a "gnu." But then you probably already "gnu" that. Not that funny, I guess.
For me, the most exciting wildebeest crossing was the fourth one. The river was running fast and the action was intense. I took a lot of photos - too many for one post. So here is the first group.
The Egyptian is a watering hole in the middle of the Masai Mara. Zebras and wildebeest would travel for miles just to get water from this watering hole. On this particular day. there was a stream of animals as far as the eye could see walking toward this place.
