ARCHIVE KENYA 121 – WARBLER AMONGST ACACIA THORNS
February 14, 2021 16 Comments
Small warbler – perhaps a Cisticola – amongst fearsome Acacia thorns, any one of which could so easily transfix it; probably in Nairobi National Park, in the late 1970s.
The Cisticolas are a group of small warblers that that all look very similar to each other; they are the archetypal “small brown birds”.

Technique: OM-1 with a Vivitar 400mm telephoto; Agfa CT18 colour slide film rated at 64 ISO; Lightroom. This would have been taken from the window of my car, from one of the tracks in the National Park.
