Thirsty Stripes at Midnight!

Black and white stripes make the zebra one of the most recognizable animals in the world.
The plains zebra (Equus quagga), also known as the common zebra or Burchell's zebra, is the most common and geographically widespread species of zebra.
It ranges from the south of Ethiopia through East Africa to as far south as Botswana and eastern South Africa. The plains zebra remains common in game reserves, but is threatened by human activities such as hunting for its meat and hide, as well as competition with livestock and encroachment by farming on much of its habitat.

This herd of Plain's Zebra was captured on a Photography Safari during a night hide photo session at Ndoto House, Olkiramatian Conservancy, Kenya.

The Exquisite Beauty!

Driving into Serengeti National Park through Nabi Gate, we sighted a couple of Lions resting in a tree during the hot mid afternoon heat. Having finished photographing them, we went around to the second tree, which also had quite a bit of activity underneath it, we are amazed to find a female Leopard (panthera padrus padrus) keeping a very keen look out at the Lions on the next door tree.

Having confirmed that the Lions were not a threat she finally started climbing down from the tree. This amazing sighting was captured on a Photography Safari on a game drive in Serengeti National Park, Tanzania.

The Tern in Flight!

The Whiskered tern (Chlidonias hybrida) is a tern in the family Laridae. The genus name is from Ancient Greek khelidonios, "swallow-like", from khelidon, "swallow".
The Whiskered Tern is a small, tubby marsh tern with a slightly forked tail. The Whiskered Tern is also known as the Marsh Tern or Black-fronted Tern.
In breeding or summer plumage, the whiskered tern has a dark grey body, white cheeks and a black crown. In winter, the plumage turns white on the underside and pale grey on the upper-parts. The forehead also turns white and the remainder of the crown becomes flecked with white thus appearing grey. The bill and legs of the whiskered tern are red, a striking feature that allows this species to be distinguished from other terns

This beautiful Whiskered Tern in flight was captured on a Photography Safari on a late evening game drive around the marshes in Amboseli National Park, Kenya.

The Colourful Roller singing at Sunset!

The Lilac-breasted Roller (Coracias caudatus) is an African member of the roller (or Coraciidae) family of birds. It is widely distributed in sub-Saharan Africa.
The lilac-breasted roller could have just as easily been called the “rainbow roller.” They have around 8 colors; green, white, black, yellow, turquoise, dark blue, reddish brown, and of course lilac. That is one colorful bird!
The lilac-breasted roller has a robust body and a proportionately large, green head with a heavy black beak. It has a white chin and a white or yellow band above the eyes and beak. Its breast is a dark lilac that grows lighter towards the throat.
The abdomen and underside of the wings are turquoise, and the wings’ underside is also trimmed with dark blue. The upper part of the wings is reddish brown. Their forked tail, which is also turquoise, ends in black streamers.

This beautiful Lilac-breasted Roller was photographed during a late evening game drive on a Photography Safari in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

Queen of Maji ya Fisi at Sunset!

The eldest female in a Pride is the "Queen" as she is the one who keeps the pride together and disciplines anybody who gets out of line. She is also in the lead of all hunting expeditions passing on her wisdom to the younger Lionesses.
This beautiful lioness was eagerly looking towards the nocturnal activities of the rest of the pride which may have resulted in a successful hunt to feed them.

This Lioness, from the Maji ya Fisi Pride, was captured during a Photography Safari on a late evening game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

The Darter in Flight at Sunrise!

The African Darters (Anhinga rufa) are also commonly known as Snakebirds - named so for the way their thin, long, snake-like necks are often seen sticking out of the water as the rest of their bodies is submerged, or when mated pairs twist their necks during their bonding displays. These water birds are able to turn, twist and contort their necks in unusual ways.
The name "Darter" alludes to their manner of procuring food, as they impale fishes with their slim, pointed beaks.
They are endemic to tropical sub-Saharan Africa, where they are typically found in or near bodies of both saline and fresh water.
The African Darters are large, slim water birds that measure about 80 cm in length, including their long, rounded tails. These cormorant-like birds often swim with only the neck above water. They have very long and sharp beaks, which they use to spear their slippery fish prey.
They are able to retract and extend their necks and maintain the neck retracted during flight - unlike most other long-necked birds

This beautiful African Darter was captured during a Photography Safari on an early morning boat ride along the shores of Lake Baringo, Kenya.

World Giraffe Day 2026!

World Giraffe Day is an annual event initiated by Giraffe Conservation Foundation (GCF) to celebrate the tallest animal on the longest day or night (depending on which hemisphere you live!) of the year - 21st June - every year!
Not only is it a worldwide celebration of these amazing and much-loved animals, but an annual event to raise support, create awareness and shed light on the challenges giraffe face in the wild. By supporting World Giraffe Day (WGD), you directly help save giraffe in Africa. With only approximately 111,000 giraffe remaining in the wild, the time is right to act NOW!

The Maasai giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis tippelskirchi or G. tippelskirchi), also spelled Masai giraffe, and sometimes called Kilimanjaro giraffe, is a subspecies or species of giraffe. It is native to East Africa. The Maasai giraffe can be found in central and southern Kenya and in Tanzania. It has distinctive, irregular, jagged, star-like blotches that extend from the hooves to its head.

This beautiful Maasai Giraffe was captured at eye level on a Photography safari on a late evening game drive in Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

Elegant Spots Scent Marking at Sunset!

All cats are very territorial animals. They need to feel safe in their space and they need it to be clear to other cats that they are, in fact, the owner of that space. The best-known feline territory marking behaviour is urine spraying: Males and females, can spray when they feel the need to plant “no trespassing” signs.
Scent is used to identify members of the same colony, define territory, create familiarity, announce sexual readiness, learn more about unfamiliar cats in the environment, self-soothe, bond with another, or as a form of covert aggression.

These handsome Cheetah, from the Furious Five (Tano Bora) Pride was photographed spraying the tree with urine during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

The Cape Lifer!

The Cape teal (Anas capensis) also Cape wigeon or Cape widgeon is a 44 - 46 cm long dabbling duck of open wetlands in sub-Saharan Africa.
Like many southern ducks, the sexes are similar. It is very pale and mainly grey, with a browner back and pink on the bill (young birds lack the pink). This is a generally quiet species, except during mating displays. The breeding male has a clear whistle, whereas the female has a feeble "quack". The Cape teal cannot be confused with any other duck in its range.
The Cape teal feeds on aquatic plants and small creatures (invertebrates, crustaceans and amphibians) obtained by dabbling. The nest is on the ground under vegetation and near water.
Medium-sized, pale gray duck with a pink bill. In flight, shows a green patch that is surrounded by white. Prefers saltwater wetlands such as natural saltpans and man-made saltworks but sometimes also uses freshwater wetlands. Similar to Red-billed Duck, but without a dark cap, and with paler overall coloration. Pink bill separates Cape Teal from all other ducks and grebes in the region. (Source: Wikipedia)

The beautiful Cape Teal is a lifer and was sighted on a photography safari during a late evening game drive in Amboseli National Park, Kenya.
