Kiboko by

Kiboko is the swahili name for hippo. We went on a wonderful walking safari in Kenya and saw these fantastic creatures. The first ones we came across were just sticking out of the water and I thought they were rocks! They were the other side of the river bank but you could hear them groaning and grunting with blissed-out pleasure! Can you see the little baby on the left?
