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.
Crossing No. 4 – Part 2
Photographs do not give justice to the witnessing of a wildebeest crossing. With photographs you can't hear the cacophony of the wildebeest calling or the splashing of the water.

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.
