Hi Luggers,

Grevy's zebras are distinguished by many thin stripes and white bellies. 
They are not as common as Burchill's zebras - found in the south and part of 
the annual migration.
We were lucky to find three together, our guide told us:

Two of the youngsters were fooling around to prove who was the boss. Here 
they are play fighting:

Both pictures taken in Samburu with the GH2 and the 100 - 300 zoom, lightly 
processed in CS 4

C&C always welcome. Please look large.

Cheers

Howard.
