MARA GAME DRIVE NO. 3 |
|
Today we drove into a part of the great herds that migrate through the Serengeti Plains each year. That was a huge thrill. |
|
These two photos are actually composites of several smaller pictures taken and then pasted together to provide a panorama view. Another way of saying this is to say that the herd was too huge to catch in a single picture of any camera. It was an awesome experience to say the least. The feeling of power became obvious after a while as we simply sat there with the motor turned off and tried to absorb it all. |
|
As we continued to drive around the Mara we saw more elephants, Grant's gazelles, got a view of a lion drinking, and watched a Giraffe lean way down to graze. |
|
We also saw a pair of Ostriches, more Topi, a White-backed Vulture, and a lot of Wildebeestes. My son took one look at that Wildebeeste photo and said "Ya know, Wildebeestes don't have a lot going for them, do they." I guess you would have to ask another Wildebeeste. |
