Leopard
Buffalo Springs National Reserve
Kenya

This does not look like the most comfortable place to nap, but leopards prefer to nap in trees where they cannot be attacked by lions or hyenas, rather than on the ground. They sleep 12-15 hours a day and often hunt in the evenings, nights and early mornings.

Sunday Challenge: Show us the best image you’ve captured recently. Tell us a little about it and let us know which style of photography you enjoy most.

I enjoy photographing animals and travel photography. Sometimes, I am lucky and can combine the two.

Sheldrick Trust Nairobi Nursery
Nairobi National Park
Kenya

The Sheldrick Trust Nairobi Nursery is known for rescuing orphaned elephants and rehabilitating them to live in the wild. They have also rescued other animals. Notty the zebra was rescued in September 2025 after her mother fell off a cliff. Her best friend is another orphan - a black rhino - that was rescued about the same time. Until she is independent enough to fend for herself, she is cared for by the staff and protected from the park lions, who would love nothing more than to have a meal of baby zebra.

The Standoff

nobody@ipernity.com (Esther) — Sun, 30 Aug 2026 16:07:51 +0000

Esther has posted:

A white rhinoceros walking down the middle of the dirt road encountered a safari van heading the other way. There was a brief stand off until the van backed up and pulled to the side of the road to let the rhinoceros pass. Animals have the right of way in the Kenyan National Parks.

Secretary bird

nobody@ipernity.com (Esther) — Thu, 27 Aug 2026 02:44:20 +0000

Esther has posted:

The secretary bird is a mostly terrestrial bird of prey "with an eagle-like body on crane-like legs that give the bird a height of as much as 1.3 m (4 ft 3 in)"

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secretarybird

The secretary bird's name was inspired by the long, stiff black feathers on the back of its head which look like the quill pens that office workers once kept tucked behind their ears.

What's for dinner?

nobody@ipernity.com (Esther) — Mon, 17 Aug 2026 02:48:03 +0000

Esther has posted:

A Nile Crocodile swims alongside the frantic wildebeest crossing the Mara River in Kenya. Normally, one or two of the wildebeest would become his dinner. However, this day, he was content to watch his dinner pass him by. Perhaps he had recently had his fill of wildebeest. In any event, these wildebeest were extremely lucky that he allowed them to pass unscathed.
