Massive Crossing of both wildbeests and Zebras on 15th.August.2012.

After watching Black rhino,buffaloes and Giraffes among other animals we left little Governors camp at 3:30pm,and drive straight to main paradise plains.At the mortuary/kaburi crossing,there were thousands of wildbeests crossing the river,very great time we had here everbody was happy and cheering up the zebras and wildbeests crossing mara river.It is this crossing point that,when wildbeests are crossing from Narok mara to mara conservancy,if they make wrong direction to get in and out alot of them are normaly stucked and even some casualties,today was of no exception.Look at the photos below.All hundreds of tourists who were there today had best of their time,including our minister for tourism.
On mara triangle this morning i did not see many wildbeests and zebras but with today's crossing the number is building up.At the crossing point near kichwa tembo airstrip massive crossing is expected tomorrow.

Mara Triangle Safari on 15th August 2012 Black Rhino and Buffaloes..

Mara Triangle Safari On 15th.August.2012,Black Rhino and Buffaloes. .
I left main camp today very early in the morning and this time crossing the river to mara conservancy/mara triangle,following my safari team,the Lakey's family who were ballooning.After their safari up on the balloon basket we were back on our safari jeep,and i still had three items on their list to tick them off i.e,Rhino,wildbeests crossing and a kill!!.Lucky enough,at where the  breakfast was set,we spotted a black rhino,the only species found inside the reserve apart from the white rhino which is found outside the reserve on a sanctuary near Mara Safari Club-Fairmont Hotels,we set off and in about 30 minutes we found a big male,having have walked long distance,everyone was so happy that we have been very lucky to spot the big five in a duration of bout 25 hours.Black Rhinos in the mara are very few in that even we guides do not see them very frequently,thanks to the management of the Narok mara reserve and mara triangle with the help of Frunkfort zoological department for the effort they are putting on the conservation of this golden creature.

 Black rhinos are mostly solitary.

 Buffaloes mudwallowing.

On our way back to the camp we found a big herd of bufalloes who they were mudwallowing on a small marsh to cool down and to keep the disturbing insects.Enjoyed watching them!!!
