Crossing No. 4 – Part 1

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

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.

Can you Spot the Lion?

We had a fantastic animal spotter in our Masai driver Jackson. He spotted this lion from a great distance away. I took this first photo using a 400mm lens and I still can't tell where the lion actually is.
