    Leading the procession we have the bull, then an adult female and her older daughter and young mischievous son complete with trunk in the air! Above the bull are a pair of squabbling Anteater Chat. This gives a good indication as to the size of a mature bull to a mature female, a massive difference! It took over an hour and a lot of patience to capture all four progressively sized with clear separation and to a wonderful evening sky, what a joy to witness! Loisaba- Northern Kenya.

    I love Your Shot photographer Cindy K.'s comment: "Congratulations to you Marc! This is an amazing capture of such beautiful animals. I absolutely love the silhouettes of this procession and the emotion evoked with the trunk up in the air by the youngest. A favorite for me!"
