Hi everyone sorry I have not written in so long I was busy with stuff I needed to do and plus, I got to go to Kenya for 2 weeks and it was fun and even more amazing than you can imagine. We first went to a place called Samburu which was a in a tropical sort of place which had monkeys and a few antelope called Kudu that came around every once and a while. I kept a journal so I wouldn't forget about everything. All the animals are:
- Wildebeast all over in the Masai Mara because of the great migration
- Zebras same thing as the wildebeast
- Giraffes
- baboons
- Rhinos
- Chimps
- Elands
- Topis
- Elephants
- buffalo
- monkeys
- dik diks
- impalas
- thomsan's gazelles
- grants gazelles
- hippos
- crocodiles
- vultures
- eagles
- secretary bird
- ostriches
- cheetahs
- lions
- hyenas
- mongoose
- jackals
- hartebeast
- oryx
- maribou
- warthogs
- storks
- spoon bills
- and much more
and many birds that were beautiful in color and that we saw many times so we could appreciate how pretty they were.
This is Wafula--does he look familiar? I was given an African tribal name by a Kenyan man I met. It means Rainy Season which is a good time for Africa. It is a time when everything grows and animals are nourished.
This is only the intro to everything. My next blog entry will be about the first days in Samburu National Reserve.
