A pretty epic trip around the Nairobi National Park – the only city with a National Park on it’s doorstep.
Some deer/gazelles of some sort, grazing at dawn…

View of the Nairobi skyline from the park

A zebra’s arse, obviously.

Zebras and the city…

Zebras at dawn…

Water buffalo just chillin. I think maybe he wasn’t quite ready to get up yet. It was 6am after all.

Spotted my first Giraffe, hiding in the trees

There he is!

Rather blurry photo of a lioness


And a rather lovely rhino wandering about happily


And some water buffalo, um, by the water…

And some more giraffes, hanging with some zebra



These giraffes were my favourites though….


Just wandering down the road, as you do…

And this one was walking up behind the car, and kept freezing whenever I looked at him.
More water buffalo

Then I went to visit the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage – so cute with all the baby ellies!!


Getting their daily milk

And having fun with the mud bath



This one hilariously got stuck in the mud

The water buffalo is a Cape buffalo. It is one of the most dangerous animals in Africa.
Wow! I didn’t know that! Thanks Brian!
