Day 2 of a safari in Masai Mara National Park, Kenya: Canon EOS-200D, all original, without any color grading. August 29, 2023.
Coming out of the hotel and entering the national park for the first **, the little antelope, they are one of the most hosts here and very cute.
Warthogs are also roaming around, and almost all of them are there.
The warthogs followed the antelope.
Not far away, a herd of zebras, they have become the veritable overlord here, mainly referring to a lot of special.
In the grassland safari, all the ** can only be filmed in the car, and can not get off, but fortunately, most of the animals are very close.
Today is our second safari in the Masai Mara, where we will go to the Yarra Valley and wait for the animals to cross the river (in fact we didn't wait). An ostrich appeared on the vast grassland, she paced leisurely, sometimes bowed her head to peck at the grass, sometimes stopped to look around, although there were not many ostriches encountered on the grassland, but this was not the only time.
Our car continued to move slowly in the empty Maasai Mara grassland in the direction of the ostrich, the driver was a local, very kind and unhurried, he said that he longed to go to China, he worked in a travel agency owned by Chinese, the owner is Chinese, and he is also a friend I have known for many years.
It's the figure of a small antelope again, don't look at their small size, but they are actually quite fast.
A few hyenas are on the move, and they look a bit 'sneaky' and sometimes lurk very close to the driveway. It is one of the most ferocious animals of the steppe.
It looks very domineering.,It's an extremely good group cooperation animal.,Sometimes dare to fight with lions.。
Hyenas are always alert and quick-witted, and have been seen several times in the Masai Mara.
Soon I met a few giraffes again, they grazing with graceful movements, they were already accustomed to tourists, and they were not afraid of people approaching, and it was very easy to photograph them.
I had seen lions twice the afternoon before, and today I was lucky, the driver learned from the radio in the car that there was a lion nearby, and he immediately turned the car around and quickly led us to it.
There were two of them, one sleeping under a tree and one standing in front of a car. It was not a surprise to us to arrive, and it is estimated that many tourists come to visit every day, standing motionless in front of the car.
After seeing the lions, we drove to the Yarra River, where we hunted in the grasslands, and the speed was usually too slow to run on the grasslands. This also makes it easier to spot more animals.
A large herd of zebras appeared, sometimes standing still and looking around.
I also saw a zebra rolling around.
The bighorned African antelope appeared, and its horns were really big, very long, and tall, and it looked very majestic.
There are not many bighorn antelopes, and they usually move in groups.
Another herd of zebras.
Zebras are also the most common animals that cross rivers during the Great Migration.
After saying goodbye to zebras and bighorn antelopes, we slowly made our way to the Yarra River and met a few crocodiles. There are also hippos in the water.
A few baboons greeted us.
Another herd of small antelopes.
It's cute to turn your head and look at the tourists.
Encounter the corner wildebeest again.
Lunch was packed from the hotel and brought to the park and eaten in the car at noon.
The toilet was taken by the driver to a raised point in the grassland, where there was a bush and people used it as a toilet.
We waited patiently for a long time in the Yarra River, south of Tanzania, and there were indeed many herds of wildebeests, black bulls, and zebras moving on the bank, but we just didn't wait for them to get into the water.
Didn't wait for the scene of the animals crossing the river, on the way back to the hotel in the evening, I photographed the bird above, it was very close to our car, in fact, in the Masai Mara, there are also a lot of birds. Teacher Wang and the two Aunt Jin took pictures of a lot of beautiful birds.
Day 3 Safari** I'll share it next time, thank you for reading.
