Kenya. A white-tailed mongoose quenches its thirst in the night.Its image reflected in the water, combined with its real form, merges at first into a single shape, then reveals more details: the long tail, the stiff fur, the curious snout, a delicate body. It is hard to imagine the warrior inside it.
