Secretary Bird
Masai Mara, Kenya
Its common name is popularly thought to derive from the crest of long quill-like
feathers, lending the bird the appearance of a secretary with quill pens tucked
behind his or her ear, as was once common practice. A more recent hypothesis is
that "secretary" is borrowed from a French corruption of the Arabic saqr-et-tair
or "hunter-bird". (Wikipedia)
The long legs, which increases the bird’s height to around 1.3 m tall, help him catching his favourite prey: snakes.

Inside A Manyatta
A manyatta is a hut made of mud and dung supported using branches from trees.
The young mother is looking after her child on the sleeping area, which is covered with animal skins while her husband is showing me wooden headrests they use as pillows.
