Masai Mara - Day 3

Masai Mara
-January 2, 2014-
-Day 3-

For Adrienne's Birthday, she wanted to see male lions (we did not see them during our first 2 days) - and we ended up finding 5! We also saw a failed cheetah hunt by the same three cheetah brothers on our last day.

The rest of the Pride - Adult Females and Young Lions -Were  Close By. About 15 in Total were Sleeping in the Bushes.







All the Safari Vehicles Lined up - By the Again, Unknowing Impalas - as a Cheetah Hunt is on! 

Stalking Cheetah in the Tall Grass
-Ultimately he is unsuccessful this time - he started his run too early and the impala were able to escape.-

Post Chase 

We found the cheetahs again on our afternoon game drive.



Surveying the Land for Prey - They must keep hunting as they had not eaten yet that day.
