These two are part of a coalition of 3 adults that ruled the Southern parts of the Serengeti plains. We were fortunate enough to find them sitting on top of the Kopjes.
The kopjes of Eastern Africa tend to be a refuge for life in the Serengeti of Tanzania and Kenya. Where the soil is too thin or hard to support tree life in large areas, soil trapped by kopjes can be dense with trees while the surrounding land contains only short grass. Hollows in the rock surfaces provide catchments for rainwater.Many animals have adapted to the use of kopjes, to include the lion, hyrax, and an abundance of bird and reptile life.

It is that time of the year when I know the Pacific Loons are in the process of nesting out west, I am reminiscing to this calm morning spend with this amazing pair last year.

One of the most abundant birds across North America, and one of the most boldly colored, the Red-winged Blackbird is a familiar sight on cattails, along roadsides, and tree tops.
Glossy-black males have red and yellow shoulder patches they can puff up or hide depending on how confident they feel. In the North, their early arrival and tumbling song are happy indications of the return of spring.

This aggressive swallow was not shy and allowed for ample photographic opportunities, as the sun was setting. They are beautiful avian acrobats.They chase after flying insects with acrobatic twists and turns, their steely blue-green feathers flashing in the sunlight.
