Riding in the land...
Across the road from where J. is stabled, there's a large area of shambas (small-holder farm plots) and behind that a large coffee plantation. We hack out there a couple of times a week, and for a place right on the edge of big-city Nairobi, it is an incredible landscape of greenery, wildlife, livestock and people.
When the rains have been good, low-lying areas turn into shallow seasonal ponds or marshes, which attract blue herons, African crowned cranes, and other birds.
