Sheltering below the plunging walls of the Great Rift Valley lies the quintessentially serene Lake Manyara Tented Camp, tucked in an evergreen forest on bird-rich Lake Manyara. Lake Manyara National Park is where Ernest Hemingway camped on the hunting safari that inspired his book, Green Hills of Africa.
WHAT A BREAKFAST!
Driving back to the lodge for breakfast after the morning game drive, we came across about 20 dwarf mongooses all alarming and run fast across the road to the thickets. With a big surprise we saw an African Hawk Eagle diving down at full speed and within seconds it was flying up with a mongoose and then perched on a Phediobia albida tree to enjoy its breakfast.
