All that is left of Winchester Palace
Winchester Palace
Pronounced "SUTH-ark"
The facade
A foreign car
What my car would look like in London
30 St. Mary Axe
Look it up.
Parliament & you-know-what
Distaff Lane
Women got their own street!
The common zebra
Smaller than their southern African cousin, possibly the most common animal on the Mara.
Hyena
Despised by the native people, as they are considered dirty. Worse than vultures. They eat anything and every part of what they scavenge or kill, including bones and teeth. Their scat is white.
Or, is Thompson's gazelle the most common?
Do I remember correctly that a friend of mine described these animals as the "fast food" of the plains? Get it- "fast" food?
The grand gazelle
Plentiful, but not really common.
Topi
Note the blue patch on each hind leg.
Giraffe
Giraffe are the only animal on the Mara that can see color. Why?
One of Africa's "Big Five"
Lion, rhino, elephant, leopard, and cape buffalo.
Third of the Big Five.
Again within 30 feet, but this time from within the vehicle.
African Sunset
The Maasai are burning the grass to encourage new growth for their beloved cattle.
