Just before sunrise outside the Maasai Mara Reserve. These lionesses had eaten well during the night, but now as day dawned the hyenas were moving in to take what remained of the kill. More of this story and photos at Hyena Heist in the Mara HERE.

Wow. What a photo! What an amazing scene to witness.
It was. I’m still not sure if was really there 🙂
It does have a dreamlike quality. I can see from your photos and stories why your time in Africa has had such a lasting impact on you.
stunning, tish –
Thank you 🙂
A fantastic photograph. Hope you are enjoying the sunshine. Janet 🙂
It’s just this moment arrived here. So will go out and enjoy. Have a good day too 🙂
Wow! To be present at this scene, what a privilege Tish, and I feel privileged to have this as your entry.
That’s such a lovely comment, Paula. Thank you.
Well, beat that! My offering will be very tame after this!

What’s so special about a bunch of cats? I’ve got them all over the place. Chickens, too.

Ha!
Crazy colours, and what a scene!
Stunning shot, Tish. It brought back the memories when I was there. Thanks for sharing..
Thanks so much, Nurul. I’m glad to bring back happy memories 🙂
Purple or mauve hour! What adventures you’ve had!
The trouble was that particular one was around 5.30 am when I am not quite myself!
An amazing image Tish, what a thrill it must’ve been to witness these great animals in their natural habitat. Now I’m going over to read more about them.
You are a good follower, Pauline. Thank you 🙂
One sight I’ll never forget is lions just after they’d feasted.
Gorgeous post!
Thank you, Kendall 🙂
Welcome!
That hyena is giving those ladies the respect they deserve. 😀 … spectacular photo!
Thank you.
What a magical shot, Tish! A friend of mine will go to Maasai Mara in September…I wish I could go in her luggage 🙂
Oh yes. That sounds highly desirable – a stowaway 🙂
