We arrived at the Hyena dam early on a Sunday afternoon, and parked our vehicle, as we often do when watching birds. an African skimmer sat calmly very close to us. When watching birds it is always useful to have a good pair of binoculars, and if possible a good camera. A bird identification book for East African species is also useful to keep in the car when driving. Next time you visit the park, lookout for the unexpected, like the rarely seen African skimmer.
