17. December - Playback’s and car problems
Category: 2. Field News Kenya | Date: Dec 21 2007 | By: admin
Karen departed on the early morning flight and Joyce spent the morning out with Graeme and Katito Sayialel (field assistant of the Amboseli Elephant Research Project), doing playbacks, while Petter and Selengei went out to test our new Canon EOS 5D camera. Joyce had a wonderful morning watching the elephants’ response to a variety of playback stimuli, while Petter and Selengei, sat for almost four hours, in the hot sun in a a car that wouldn’t start. Not a very auspicious start!
Surrounded by buffalos, Petter decided not to walk back to the camp… This time it seemed that the problem was the battery. Luckily we were able to borrow a battery from another car. So with rear shock absorbers and a new battery on our list we called Nairobi and arranged for spares to be purchased and sent down.
