Birds of East Africa
Crowned Crane and Mount Kenya
The views from Sweetwaters Camp in Ol Pejeta Conservancy are breath-taking. The tents are all positioned over a waterhole at the foot of Mount Kenya. When I saw this crowned crane getting in line with Mount Kenya, I quickly grabbed my camera, made sure my settings were correct and took the picture. Next time I go, I am hoping to see a lion or an elephant in the same position!
