Here are some photos taken with the Nikon

The elephants fighting were part of a herd of 200 which passed us by one evening. The lioness next to the lion is having a rest in the grass. Not far away were several cubs which had feasted on a 'kill', a buffalo. I visited the site of the kill over a period of 48 hours after which all that remained were just the bones. I did take some photos of the kill but those are too gruesome to publish.

The Mara is beautiful but it's territory can be violent and dangerous even for predators.
