Well this is what I think it is. Never heard of it before let alone seen it. Taken in Lewa Conservancy , Kenya.
Rather a large crop, so not the best of quality.

Looks like it from the other images on the web, Ken. Nice image for what you describe as a large crop.

I agree with Dennis. Fine work, considering the crop.

Ken, as you mentioned, the details don't hold up well to the large crop, but glad to see a new species I have never seen as well. In a perfect world, I would also wish for a touch more head turn, but I like the comp on this.
