Hippo Grazing

Ngorongoro Crater.

This is some distance from the "breakfast" hippo pool. This guy out grazing probably came from a different pool. The water in the background is the largest lake in the crater (in terms of surface ares). My memory is that we were told it is salty. I'm not sure if that prevents the hippo from using it.

The white birds in the lake are flamingoes. I apparently did not get a good photo of them.
