More Ol Pejeta pictures

At the Mt Kenya Safari Club outside of Nanyuki, there were plenty of orphan animals to pet.  We spent several lovely hours there.

The bongos were beautfiul animals to see and touch

We all had turns being climbed on by the monkeys

Colobus, one of the more dramatic monkeys to see, although not actually the softest

Ol Pejeta is known for having the last surviving northern white rhinos in the world.  They have then in a protected enclosure.

A rainbow came out at our campsite when we arrived.

And soon after, a herd of elephants came by on the opposite side of the bank.  Amazing experience to sit at the campsite and watch the elephants!

The morning was cool, with a mist over the river.

On our first game drive, we had great sitings of several bat-eared foxes, a first for us to see that species.

Black-backed jackals were common on the grasslands

We were fortunate to see many elephants throughout our trip there

One elephant was lumbering down the road on our evening game drive

Lots of warthogs, which were always amusing

Good spottings of the spotted hyenas on the grasslands.
