Although the small bushbuck antelope exists in fairly large numbers in most of Kenya’s game parks, it is a shy, solitary animal and is rarely sighted. Standing at about 80 cm at the shoulder, the bushbuck is chestnut to dark brown in colour with a variable number of white vertical stripes on the body between the neck and rump, as well as usually two horizontal white stripes lower down which give the animal a harnessed appearance. There are also a number of spots on the upper thigh and a white splash on the neck. Females are reddish-brown. Horns are usually only grown by males but females have been known to grow them on rare occasions. They are lyre-shaped with gentle spirals and average about 30 cm in length. Bushbuck are rarely found in groups of more than two and prefer to stick to areas with heavy bush cover. When startled they take-off and crash loudly through the undergrowth. They are nocturnal animals and browsers yet rarely move far from the chosen spot. Though shy and elusive they can be aggressive and dangerous when cornered. Their main predators are leopard and python
A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment. I throw myself down among the tall grass by the trickling stream; and, as I lie close to the earth. Thousand unknown plants are noticed by me. When I hear the buzz of the little world among the stalks, and grow familiar with the countless.
