Amboseli

10 June 2014
Protus drove us to and from Amboseli and Fiona drove us around inside - which had its exciting moment as you will see. I loved catching up with birds like the Hoopoe,
the Secretary Bird and Swallow-tailed Bee-Eater that I hadn't seen sinceRichard died. New birds included the Saddlebill Stork, the Crowned Crane and the Grey-headed Kingfisher. The stars of our weekend were elephants. We counted 63 including calves as they crossed the road in front of us. An exciting moment came when the road ended in a swamp which we dared not drive into and behind us on the road was a bull elephant. There was nothing for it: Fiona had to turn the car round in front of the elephant and gently move past him!
