 Although it is possible to view lion on the crater floor, it is not possible to see bull buffalo grazing close to the lion The bull was very relaxed and close to two big male lions. This amazing sighting happened yesterday during our normal game drive in the crater floor. This bull buffalo was 10 meters away from these male lions and was very relaxed,...

We were in the reception area when one of the Askari came in and said that he saw a leopard making its way towards us near the Green hurt house. I asked him to walk back again and see if we could see it. We saw it trying to hide from us.

It was morning game drive which lasted into the afternoon on the crater floor. We saw a lot of wildlife, even though the area is dry now. We drove in one of our picnic sites and stopped there for a late breakfast. We were also looking at zebras in the water having a drink. Suddenly two lionesses came out from the bush and a managed to kill one of...

It was during our morning game drive on the crater floor and my guests were very keen to see a kill. So, we drove for about one hour. Then suddenly we saw four lionesses just ten metres away from our car, crawling towards a warthog which had not yet seen these lions. They came very close to them. One lioness jumped from the grass and chased the warthog...

 We had started our early morning game drive at about 06:30 am. We had a good sighting of 2 big male lions walking from jackal loop. They joined the females with 4 cubs of different ages between 4 and 8 months old who were eating a young zebra. Later at about 100 metres before Lake Magadi we saw a hyena cub of about a year and a few months old eating the...

On our game drive today on the crater floor along the hippo pool at around 12h30, we were watching a few hyenas that were very close to a buffalo breeding herd with their calves. There was also a big male warthog around there. At first I knew that they were looking for an opportunity to hunt one of the buffalo calves. The way it is here is that it is...

It was whilst we were on our afternoon game drive on the crater floor that we saw something quite amazing. We saw a lioness with her cubs. At the time that we were observing these lions, we also saw a cheetah in the distance. We stayed put and continued to watch. The cheetah came closer to the lions without realising that they were there. Suddenly the...

How beautiful to be in the same area all year round and get to enjoy different kinds of weather. Here you can never get bored. A few months ago it was our rain season which was followed by cold, and now we're in the hot season! Yes, it is dust and warmth. But the sunrises & sunsets are amazing. This is what I enjoy the most in my life. When the sky...

 We were on game drive along Lake Magadi on the Crater floor and while we were looking at flamingos we saw a hyena running fast at about 45 metres ahead of us. We saw a Cape hare being chased by a hyena. The Cape hare tried with all its might to escape from the hyena but was not. Its attempts turned into a bit of race which was unsuccessful for the hare....

 The dry winter season has begun already. At this time of year the area around the Crater rim is normally covered with mist in the morning while in the Crater floor its usually clear and a little windy. Along the Lake Magadi area are a lot of Lesser flamingos. The hyenas are still taking their chances along the lake shore trying to catch the flamingos.
