We are currently in central Serengeti where today we saw the great wildebeest and zebra migration. We saw the herds for tens of miles in every direction..... 1.5 - 2 million animals?? Who knows because it was just an ocean of horns and hooves covering as far as we could see in all directions as we drove for a long time. Words & pics cannot describe it, you need to experience it in person. And lots of birds, from storks in multitudes to vultures circling for anything to scavenge.
Also saw a pride of lions (pic) with 1 large male, 8 females, & 4 new born kittens. From only 10 metres away. Was an awesome day. Maybe the best yet.
Our last night at Serengeti Katikati tented camp and they have just shut off the generator at 9:30. Can now hear the hyenas yipping and laughing within 100 yards. Had giraffes nearby the camp again today as well.
Oh, my. . . this is it! You have witnessed a sight that I have always wanted to see. I have viewed so many documentaries about the great migration. Now all I need is the herd jumping into the river. You are so lucky. I think I could even put up with the broken tailbone to see what you have seen.
