Yellow Winged Bats, Masai Mara Kenya

I was lucky to spot this cluster of three Yellow-Winged Bats as we drove through some scrub in the Mara. They are a type of 'leaf-nosed bats', insectivorous and preferring the sort of semi-arid scrub-land I found them in.

Mousebird, Nairobi Kenya

An immature Speckled Mousebird from my back yard. A gregarious species, often seen foraging in an inverted position within bushes.
