Black Shouldered Kite and Meal
I was watching a group of 4 teenage lions sleeping in tall grass at the South end of Lake Nakuru when this kite landed on a dead tree stump on the other side of the road. It had caught a mouse and started eating it. I love the markings on the kite’s plumage and took a series of pictures.
