Herbivore Species are Currently Giving Birth

Jambo and good morning from a warm and sunny Arusha! I’ve just completed guiding my most recent safari with 2 couples from California and Oregon, USA. We enjoyed 7 nights together in the bush with 5 nights in the Serengeti National Park at Lake Masek Tented Lodge along with 2 nights in the Ngorongoro Crater at the spectacular Ngorongoro Manor Lodge.

The game viewing is currently exceptional in the Serengeti with the huge herds of migratory wildebeest, zebra and gazelle dispersed all through the southern and eastern plains from the Kusini plains to the plains around Lake Masek and Lake Ndutu, south to Matiti and all the way east to Gol Kopjes and beyond. Game viewing for the resident animals including elephant, giraffe, hippo and many other species remains good. Game viewing for the big carnivores especially for lions, cheetahs and hyenas is superb! Many of the herbivore species are currently giving birth including the hundreds of thousands of wildebeest.

Below are some pictures taken from the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Enjoy!

  1. Ellison, it is so wonderful to see your smiling face and such wonderful pictures. So much green compared to our trip last October, and such density of beautiful animals. Janet and I hope you and your family are well and we wish you all the best in 2016 and beyond. Take care, my friend.
