Had a fantastic few days in the Mara, managed to get a crossing without having to wait for hours! We arrived and literally it started to happen, we were also fortunate in that there were only a few other cars so it was great. Spent most of time in the Mara walking but had the last few days out looking for game in the Triangle; amazing stuff considering the time we had.
There were two crocs at the crossing, one of which made multiple attempts to grab a wildebeest without success, and then a monster who simply swam up to the poor bull above and grabbed him. the strength was amazing and the wildebeest was bodily thrown about by the croc; check out the splash!
The final splash before the croc dragged him under.... poor thing, not a nice way to go.
Finally we had a wonderful evening with a pride of 3 lionesses and 3 cubs along with a very lazy male, this lioness looked beautiful in the sea of grass.
