 Mary the rhino. Our driver said she was heading to the forest for shade against the hot sun during the day. |
 Black rhinos are becoming extinct with only 400 left in the world today. Her keen sense of smell and hearing is checking us out. |
 There were ten jeeps following her as she walked through the savannah. |
 The hippo pool in the Mara River. There were a lot of hippos in this river! |
 The baby hippos were placed near these logs by their mothers for protection. |
 Their jaws can open 150-degrees! Why do hippos "yawn?" Better check "Animal Facts!" |
 The Mara River. This is my best scenery picture. Awesome! |
 A hippo out of the water. It needs to head to the hippo pool soon. Why can't it stay out in the sun all day? Check out "Animal Facts" for the answer. |
 The Masai Mara savannah. This was taken about 7:30 in the morning. |
 A grey crowned crane. A herd of impalas are behind it. This crane is one of the most elegant birds in all of Africa. |
 Gazelle. This is the best picture that I took of one. The dark stripes through its eyes remind me of warrior paint. |
 A dying African buffalo. It will take him years to actually die because of his size and bellicosity. |
