A scene out of paradise - with woolly-necked storks (Ciconia episcopus) hunting insects in the freshly resprouting grass, Kinda baboons (Papio kindae) wading through the newly formed pod, enjoying the new shoots, or the kids chasing around, white-backed vultures (Gyps africanus) sunning themselves, and a spur-winged goose (Plectropterus gambensis) focussed on some late afternoon plumage grooming.
