At dusk the
dense tropical rain forest comes alive with
myriad sounds of creatures of various descriptions.
The elephant,
Rhino, several species of antelopes including
the bongo and occasionally, both leopard and
the lion are frequent visitors at the illuminated
water hole which is connected to the lodge
by a short tunnel to a specially constructed
bunker affording a close up view of the game.
For the ornithologists,
over 200 species of birds have been identified
while the indigenous tropical rain forest
vegetation is of special interest to the botanists.
The most rewarding
experience is a clear early morning or afternoon
view of the rocky peaks on Mount Kenya with
its over half dozen glaciers.
