Last week I posted a photo of a lion and mentioned all the other activity at that one spot on that one morning in the Masai Mara of Kenya. This hippo was also part of the action. Just as soon as the two lions had passed, we noticed the hippo making its way back to the water after a spending the night on solid ground. Nikon D850 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 170mm) ISO 1100, f/2.8 at 1/500th of a second.

This guy looks like a thousand gallons of Grimace’s Birthday Shake poured into an industrial garbage bag.
Such a cool perspective! Feel like I’m part of your experience. So happy you’re having a successful trip!
Thanks Angelina. It was definitely a good one.
Rotund hippo in tall skinny grass. And starting at you too boot! Great!
Tiptoe through the tulips!
