Snow at the equatorÂ
Heavy snowfall on Mount Kenya is not uncommon. Like here covering all of the Shipton camp in a thick layer of damp snow.

The Secretary Bird is known for its powerful legs and can easily kill small snakes and other reptiles in the tall grass.
This young Zebra was obviously a very lucky the night before as its missing tail looked like it had just been bitten off. There was also heavy marks of a lions claws on the buttocks. It will be difficult to keep the flies away from now on.
The sun’s rays bathe the yellow grass in a warm glow, highlighting the silhouette of a Kori Bustard. This morning, the bustard gracefully stalked the grasslands of Amboseli National Park, foraging for locusts, grasshoppers, dung beetles, and other insects hidden within the fertile soil.
With an impressive wingspan reaching up to 275 cm, the Kori Bustard possesses strong legs, clearly adapted for walking rather than flying. However, when it takes flight, the sight of this majestic bird spreading its wings is truly awe-inspiring.
This encounter offers another unforgettable moment from the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in the vast plains of Kenya.
