The markings on these two giraffe were quite different - the paler one had smooth edges to its spots, while the darker one had jagged edges. Very interesting.

Kumana and Mazithi dams were both quiet. About 2kms before the Sweni Road we saw some buffalo up ahead. As we got closer we saw that they were chasing lions!!

There were 4 lions watching the buffs and every now and then a couple of the buffs would approach the lions and scare them off. The lions eventually moved a respectable distance away and the buffs went back to eating.
