Old thread but thought I'd just try and add some IDs. Went to Kakamega a few years ago and it was awesome - saw polystachias, bulbos, and lots of angraecoids.

Photo numbers (based upon the stream view)
3 - Resembles Rangaeris amaniensis, common in Kenya
7 - Aerangis brachycarpa / confusa - commonly seen in drier open woodland, can be found around Nairobi
16/17 - It is definitely a reed stem epidendrum, a non-native. It is there because someone brought it over from the Americas and planted it.
18 - Another aerangis brachycarpa / confusa
28 (on the second installment) - possibly Tridactyle
29-30 - Cymidium hybrid, a non-native
