Cool Chameleons


One thing about living in Langata-Karen in Nairobi is having a huge garden. I am able to go birding from the comfort of the deck. But one of the other pleasant surprises here are the numerous chameleons. These are Jackson's chameleons.

Cats of the Masai Mara

When I was a little girl, the only big cats I saw where at the Manila Zoo. Of course, at age 8, I was excited to see the lions in their own huge enclosures complete with a wading pond. As I grew older, I felt sorry for these magnificent cats who must have felt being imprisoned in seclusion perpetua...

So it was really a different experience to see these cats in a natural environment.... at the Masai Mara in Kenya, East Africa. :D
