Back to Lake Nakuru. The above photo should give a good idea of just how many flamingos there were on the shore of the lake - the pale pink stuff in the water are all flamingos. Supposedly this is home to the largest colony of flamingos in the world. If you click on the photo you should be able to see a bit more detail. The shore looks a bit white due to the high level of salt in the lake.
Here is a more narrow view from ground level.
