We like to add Samburu National Reserve to our Kenya tour itineraries for a chance at species we don’t see in other areas of the country. One of those species is the Somali ostrich. The males have an almost bluish tint to their necks and legs. This big boy was doing a lot of preening and I caught him with one of his wings outstretched as if telling us where to go. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 2000, f/5.6 at 1/1600th of a second.

Great shot!
Very funny!
The new school crossing guard? Very very fun shot. Thanks for the giggle.
Thanks Laura. Always good to capture those humanistic moments.
