Coastal Wildlife Sightings

These pictures were taken on the east coast of Kenya, specifically Nyali Beach and Bamburi Beach Nature Trail.  We had a successfully relaxing trip, and I was able to do a lot of birding.  My bird species count is up to 124, and I am attempting to identify a total 150 before we depart.  Lot's of mischievous vervets on the coast (my favorite)! Their dark faces are hard to capture, but I tried my best...

I felt bad for this dispossessed male, so I shared my coconut with him.

One of the most mischievous caught in the act of conniving.

The third species of kingfisher I saw on the coast.  I have been waiting a whole year to spy one of these!
