At the party

As a b'day present to self, I went off with another CHES agent to the Rondo Retreat in Kakamega Forest an hour east of town. Its a lovely set of cottages set in the tropical rain forest, a world away from the bustle of town. So up early this morning for a dawn ramble and these are some of the critters that I came across who helped celebrate entry to another year. Lucky me!
