Field Notes

Description:

This amazing scene was spotted and photographed in Masai Mara last year.......the Mara River...which is full of crocs and hippos looked deceptively calm, then at a turn, we spotted hundreds of wildebeest carcasses which the vultures were feasting on and reducing to skeletons......"biodegradable circle of life" and "recycling by nature"
(I thought to myself in dark humor.....but I was strangely not upset by thr scene)....

Habitat:

Kenya, Masai Mara
