~ In each of the four separate visits to Samburu National Reserve that I've made, the gracious restaurant staff at the Samburu Sopa Lodge — Ceasar (sic.) and Abdi — have seated me for meals at the same table, with a waterhole view. On this evening nothing of note visited the waterhole. However, a commotion at another table tipped us off that a solitary Ichneumia albicauda, White-tailed Mongoose, was passing by. I seldom use the flash in the Sony RX1 R camera, but in this instance it facilitated these two images of a species which I'd only previously observed at the Mara Sopa Lodge in August, 2014.
