CAPTURED

I used to work in Kajiado and since buses took time
to arrive at the bus stop, I used that time to explore
the surroundings. Out of this curiosity, I noticed a
bird that was nesting inside a sisal stem next to the
bus stop and it kept going in and out which made it
difficult to capture it. This particular Friday i carried
my camera and was set to capture the bird after my
colleagues had gone home. In that silence when kids
and teachers of Ereteti Primary School had left for
the weekend, the bird came and it seemed relaxed
and not in a rush. Unknown to the bird known as
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, it’s image was frozen in
time as it stepped out of it’s home.
