Chapter 159: Clear eyes
Lying across the valley of East Africa, only the lake is surrounded by green shade. This is the home of hippos and many water birds. Jamal mentioned that there were also flamingos here, but Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo did not see one.
Hippos are very terrible animals, and the injury rate is much higher than that of lions. They are timid and irritable. The speed in the water is extremely fast. Therefore, Yun Luo, who cannot water at all, is frightened. Every time he sees a hippo family, Yun Luo's heart pounds. He keeps saying not to get close, don't get close.
For $3 to buy a fish, you can watch the osprey fly from the top of the tree to the lake to catch birds. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo did not spend the money and only watched the boatman's test fish. Except for Yunluo, the osprey caught the fish in the unsharp claws, the other two had no results.
On a water surface connecting the land, many water antlers were eating grass and growing deer and zebras were leisurely eating grass, and the cranes danced gracefully. That was the first time that Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw wild deer growing. The cranes danced gracefully.
After the lake tour, Xiaodian's classmate Lei Peng broke the bird and left Naivasha Lake to the hotel in Nakulu Town, put down his luggage, took the dew and drove for another three hours Nalan Seqi and Yunluo came to Bogria Lake.
During the journey, I encountered Jamal's lobbying, lobbying Nalan Seqi and Yunluo that he would give up Lake Bogria and switch to Lake Nakuru. He was flatly rejected by Yunlu and Xiaod. After returning to the capital, he looked at other people's Nakuru's photos and had few flamingos. Haha, wise Yunluo ≠√, v5~
I encountered the first unpalatable roast chicken, so hard that I couldn't get down. I divided the chicken legs and chicken wings. The chicken legs tasted better than the chicken wings. Every time Yunluo and Xiaol got all the chicken wings, two poor people.
Lake Bogria is located in the middle of the Great Rift Valley in Kenya, about 300 kilometers from Nairobi. It is a shallow saltwater lake, close to the east by the steep private racho cliffs.
The Great Rift Valley of East Africa completely tear apart the "skin of the earth" here. In the Bogria Lake area, it is easy to see the hot springs gushing out from the depths of the ground. The water temperature can reach up to 95c. Therefore, its water source mainly comes from the streams of mountain streams and the hot springs gushing out from the ground.
Lake Bogria is a real flamingo paradise. Flamingos live in saltwater lakes and feed on aquatic organisms in the water. Lake Bogria receives "sponsorship" from underground hot springs, with its salinity and evaporation brought by the hot climate.
It makes it neither lack of water nor meets the living environment that flamingos adapted to, so it is very popular with flamingos, and they can live here all year round. The Kesubo Wetland on Hubei is the common home of more than 200 species of birds. Kenya's highest record shows that it is within one hour.
The traces of 96 species of birds were observed, with very high density. There is a sparse jungle next to it. In this isolated woodland, if you are lucky, you can also see leopards, cory badgers, and hilly ant... Tourists can hike most of the areas beside Lake Bogria and get closer to the fire.
On the return trip, Jamal took the park administrator with the consent of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo.
From the administrator's mouth, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo learned that a male lion had visited by the lake. Three days ago, it had a long mane and was bathing and resting by the lake. So the park administrators in the past few days were patrolling with an AK-47. Today the lion just left. Hearing this news made Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo very excited, and he was regretful that he could not see its might.
The administrator had a pair of eagle-like eyes, and the return time was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. The animals began to be active, and all those who had not seen when they came came out. At this time, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo had not seen the real wild animals yet. Seeing the ostrich and the gazelle really made everyone overexcited.
What I love most is it, a real elf fairy, with such beautiful eyes that are joyful and loving. I can always recall the surprise when I saw those beautiful eyes in the dv camera.
Dog-dikdik. Lives in shrubs, forests, water and stones, and is very brave and jumps very high.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Nalan Seqi and Yunluo returned to the hotel in Nakulu Town. Due to the time difference, it was already two o'clock in the morning in the capital city, and Yunluo and Xiaod were already drowsy. Because of his age, Yunluo began to feel panic and planned to give up supper. After everyone's persuasion of "the body is the capital of revolution", he ate supper in a dizzy manner.
I have forgotten what I ate in a standard Western food. It tastes good, but the soup really made Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo remember it deeply. This green vegetable soup, mixed with the smell of onions, really scared Yunluo.
This is very similar to the discarded residues when Yunluo squeezed fruit and vegetable juice. DaL actually said that the taste is good and all of them were drunk. The light is too bad and the photos are empty. Let's watch it.
This is the hunting place described by Hemingway in "The Snow of Kilimanjaro".
The highest peak in Africa, Qili, is the plain on the north side of it. It was once an area of 3,248 square kilometers in the animal reserve era, but when it was changed to a national park in 1974, it was only 392 square kilometers.
Anbo is an excellent position to see the best posture of Kili. The peak of Kili is in Tanzania, and Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo are not able to get close to him due to their own conditions, Anbo became the best choice for Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo to see its appearance.
Although it is not called camping, it is a luxury camp. In a large tent, there are beds, mosquito nets, wiring boards, adapters, candles, and behind the bed is the washing area, toilet, shower, and wash basin.
It's very convenient. There is a rest chair outside. If you are too tired, you can watch Qili here during the day and the stars at night. I still forgot to take the photo. The night view was taken, and the size of the big and small l were outside the camp at night, teasing scorpions, and enjoying the stars in the sky.
On the way to camp, the green clothes are the waiters. The waiters can't see it normally, but they need to come out somehow. On the last day of Nalan Seqi and Yunluo, when they set off early in the morning to see the sunrise and check out, they were worried that no one would take their luggage. As soon as they stepped out of camp, the figure flashed.
Kibo's semi-open-air restaurant, from time to time, all kinds of birds will come in to find food. There is a huge tree outside the restaurant, with branches and leaves spreading, covering the sun, and you can eat under the trees. There will be a lot of birds coming to visit. There is also a bar, where Big L and Li visit from time to time. Kibo's buffet tastes good and the variety is also good.
At Anbo, you need to pay special attention to sun protection. Yun Luo is here, but I took a few photos by the swimming pool. I just applied sunscreen in the morning. I was lazy and didn't take it. I was injured after a while, and it hurt when I was washing my face.
Jamal often said: manymanyelephant. A few minutes before reaching the Kibo camp, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw the elephant because Jamal's "manymanyelephant, and must check in first" did not stop to take pictures.
Yunluo was still a little dissatisfied. After Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo officially entered NP Yunluo, they understood what manymanyelephant was. The elephant family in front of the Kibo camp saw the elephant for the first time and it was only more than ten meters away. The heart was about to jump out.
Baby is crossing the road. You need to be careful. At this time, the sound of the engine can easily frighten the baby elephant. Once the baby is frightened, the elephant will protect the baby elephant and get angry. Therefore, when baby crosses the road, you must not lean too far. The leader passes first. When baby crosses the road, all the elephants in the elephant group will stop eating until they watch Baby step into the grass on the other side.
Seeing this, Yunluo recalled Jamal's happy laughter was pointing to Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo: babykiss. Watch the video. Jamal's laughter appears from time to time, which makes people miss it. It is also learned from the video that these two little elephants are not kissing, but the other end, trying to make some grass from the other end.
There are many white cattle egrets around each elephant.
Cattle egrets are the only egrets that do not feed on fish but only insects. They form a dependent relationship with domestic animals, especially water buffaloes. They appear in dry places in wetlands and often accompany water buffaloes. They often follow the insects that are frightened by domestic animals from the aquatic plants, and often rest on the back of cattle, so they get the name "cow egret".
The body is 48-cm long and wingspan is 90-cm. The weight is 300-400g and the life span is 15 years. The mouth is thick and the neck is thick and short. The winter feathers are almost all white and the feet are covered with yellow and green. The head, neck, back, etc. become light yellow during the breeding period, and the mouth and feet are red. The head, neck, upper chest and the center of the back of the male adult bird are light yellow to orange-yellow, and the remaining part of the body is pure white. The winter feathers are almost all white. The hermaphrodite is homogenous.
It’s really exciting to accept the pure wild and bad-tempered behemoths at such a close distance. These behemoths that have just been bathed.
Gazelle is the most common animal. The one who is fighting is Grantsgazelle. The abdomen is white and the female has black lines on its abdomen.
The hips and tail roots are white T-shaped. They are unique to East Africa and migrate like wildebeests, but not for water sources but for finding delicious food. Therefore, they are different from wildebeests and sometimes go the opposite way to wildebeests.
The annual wildebeest migration will be held in Mara Maasai from May to September. The Mara River will be spectacularly staged. This scene will be used as an excuse for the next time. Although many people, including Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo, also want to see the scene of the Mara River, the wildebeest in front of them is really uninteresting.
At this moment, whenever Xiao D saw wildebeests, the sentence: "It's so ugly, the clouds are falling" echoed in his ears. Indeed, they are really so ugly.
Spotted Hyena (in the Serengeti, they were visiting Yunluo's tent) Hyena was eating the buffalo head caught by the lion. The story is like this. On the afternoon of the 9th, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo Safa, I heard from the radio that a lion appeared. When Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo arrived, dozens of cars surrounded a grassland.
It is said that the lion is inside, and there is a group of hyena wandering around the grass. Usually when you see this situation, it means that the lion has caught prey, and hyena is waiting for an opportunity to eat it. The next morning, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo Safa again, and saw the following scene at the same place.
Hyena has a strict hierarchy system. The one who is eating is obviously at the bottom of the team. Most of the hyeena have eaten and drunk enough, and closed their eyes and rested.
As soon as I entered the NP Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo, I saw a lion, a lioness. I don’t know if it was just hunting or for some reason, but it walked from a distance to the shade of the tree, gasping and motionless. It was far away. After watching for a while, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo left.
When I was about to approach the observation hill, a small group of elephants appeared. A baby elephant who was not skillfully putting the grass into his mouth stood on the edge of the roadbed, repeatedly rolling it up with his nose, falling down, and rolling it up again and again.
At this time, if the car drives past the little elephant and is shocked to the baby elephant, the consequences are very serious. So Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo have to turn off the engine and watch the little elephant practice their nose.
There were even an elephant passing by the car, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo reached out, and it was self-evident that he was excited and nervous. After waiting for nearly 20 minutes, Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo gradually became bored, but there was no way. Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo could only wait, who made this place the world of others and the world of animals?
It is very small and often far away from the lane. Even if it is very close to the lane, its color makes it difficult to detect in the shrubs. Therefore, the photo below is very precious. In the evening, all the photos captured were lost to 400 telephoto.
I always thought this was a lynx. After googling it, I realized that it was not the same as a lynx. It was called a caracal. I also saw African servals in Tanzanina Lanshuqi and Yunluo, which were more beautiful animals.
The videos compiled include: caracal, servals found in Serengeti, mongoose, black-backed jackal, hyenas that want to steal Pengpeng, mating lions, and eagles.
Feline. It is a solitary or paired domain cat. Caracals can survive without drinking water for a long time - the water requirement can be met by the water in the prey.
Caracas are sometimes called desert lynx or African lynx. Because like lynx, they all have large and pointed ears, and they all have long black clumps of hair on their big ears.
However, caracals and lynx are not similar species. In terms of body shape, caracals are slightly smaller, about 60-95cm long, with long body shape and slender limbs. Their tails are also longer than lynxes, about 1/3 of their length.
The fur of caracals is generally light yellow-brown or dark red-brown, and the hair on the abdomen, around the eyes and chin is white. At the same time, there is a thin black line at the corners of the eyes that extends to the place of their noses. The back of their big ears is black. (To be continued...)
