Wait...that's not a drum! (I'm so very original)

But seriously, cool pic! These moments are tricky to capture and you caught the energy of it nicely.

Is that a different kind of flute? It's not like one I can recognize.

It might have a different name, but I recognized it as an old school wooden one common across parts of the African continent.
