Hartebeest

On the 10th of March Phil and Judy took a LONG hike out into the savanna surrounding Daystar University, Athi River. We were rewarded by getting photos of some previously unspotted animals. Judy and Phil tracked this hartebeest (as part of a herd) for quite some distance before Judy was able to get this shot. This is one of the larger antelopes here in Kenya. His horns are the most identifying feature.

  1. Just remember, if you get good photos of prey, there are undoubtedly predators nearby!
