This was one of the most interesting, awesome, insane sightings I've ever had on safari. Not going to rehash the whole story here, but you can read the whole account (with more pics) here:

Not the best photo, and a bit of a crop as it happened at a fair distance, but being up a slope we could see it all play out.

Techs:
Nikon D800
Nikkor 400mm f2.8G VR
1.4x teleconverter
f6.3 | 1/1600 SS | ISO-800
