Birds and Beasts of Kenya
LTB’s own Faraaz Abdool spent the first three weeks of June 2024 leading back to back safaris in Kenya. From the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro to the slopes of Mount Kenya, and from the baobabs of Tsavo to the gently undulating hills of the Masai Mara – it was a journey that left memory cards constantly screaming for space. Sightings were many, experiences were otherworldly, and the enlivening energy of simply being on safari made everyone’s cups full. In this webinar, he will share a selection of the birds and beasts encountered during those three weeks in some of the most iconic wildlife locations on Earth.
