    Tanzania Safari March 4–17, 2019 with Mark Faherty Optional Extension to Kenya: March 17–22, 2019 Wildlife Crossing, Yellow-billed Storks ©Classic Escapes; Pool, © Tarangire Safari Lodge Tanzania/Kenya, Mar 4–22, 2019 with Mark Faherty Tour Overview The greatest wildlife spectacle on earth! Even if you have been there before, it “never gets old.” Our tour includes world-class birding and abundant wildlife views of the big mammals: elephant, Giraffe, zebra, African Lion, Leopard, and Cheetah in the famous national parks and of Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro (conservation area), and, of course, the Serengeti. Arusha National Park is a small but popular park with great birding and extinct volcanoes covered in thick forest. Tarangire National Park is famous for the many baobab trees and high elephant populations. Lake Manyara National Park is a comparatively compact area nestled beneath the cliffs of the Great Rift Valley with spring-fed forests, thick acacia bush, and a soda lake, which, at times, holds a large variety of waterbirds including flamingos, ibises, storks, and ducks. Ngorongoro is the largest unbroken volcanic caldera in the world, but also famous for the grasslands and lakes of the crater floor, where we may find the endangered Black Rhinoceros. The main tour ends in the Serengeti. A vast unspoiled, rolling savannah and woodlands, which hosts the most spectacular concentration of animals during migration and calving. Over one million Blue Wildebeests (along with hundreds of thousands of Thomson’s Gazelles and Common Zebras can be found in the huge park during February- March. A moderately paced tour with good-to-excellent accommodations (in lodges as well as tents).

Numerous at Etosha, we could view their dominance behaviors and also some courting display, some of the males were starting to get very red necks and legs as they came into prime condition. Helmeted Guineafowl – Widespread and regularly seen throughout the journeys. The most tame were at Weltevrede where they posed on the gate, strutted about the farm and serenaded us at the end of each day. They came into the waterholes of Etosha in large groups, 20-50 at a time, vocal and jumpy, always alert. One by the roadside on the last day made this an everyday species for the trip. Red-billed Spurfowl – first seen in a wash as we approached Remhoogte Pass, coming off the escarpment onto the coastal plain on the first day from Windhoek. Widespread – seen on seven days of the trip, in all but our most arid locations. Saw some on the Dik Dik Drive of Etosha. And at the Waterberg they were abundant, at dawn their calls were deafening! Swainson’s Spurfowl – recognized by different calling, Peg spotted a family group as we entered the fort area of Namutoni in Etosha, active at the road margin.

  • Diurnal, Nocturnal, Crepuscular
    Diurnal, Nocturnal, Crepuscular Ostrich & Zebra Animal Facts Common Ostrich Names​: Boomer (He is the first ostrich in the picture with the black and white feathers), Bina & Bushara Age​: Boomer is about 21 years old Bina and Bushara are about 6 years old Diet​: Fresh lettuce and a specialized grain Size​: They are about 150 pounds each and stand about 9 feet tall Hartmann’s Mountain Zebra Name​: Kasane & Rund Age​: Kasane is about 15 years old, Rundu is about 8 years old Diet​: They get lots of hay and a specialized grain Size​: Zebras on average weigh about 600-700 pounds Visit us at Http://www.Uticazoo.org/kazoo . ​ ​ Mission: Utica Zoo creates unique experiences and promotes public appreciation of wildlife through education, conservation and recreation. Diurnal​ animals are active during the day and asleep at night, like our Zebras and Ostriches. Initially, most animals were diurnal, but adaptations over time allowed some animals to become nocturnal. Nocturnal​ animals are active at night and rest during the day, like Daisy, our Virginia Opossum. This evolutionary movement to nocturnality allowed them to better avoid predators and gain resources with less competition from other animals. A majority of animals, about 69%, are nocturnal and only about 20% of animals are diurnal. Another term that is sometimes used to describe some nocturnal animals is crepuscular. ​Crepuscular ​animals are most active at dawn and dusk, when the sun is rising and setting. Some crepuscular animals that we have at the zoo are Widget, our North American Porcupine, and our family of Chinchillas! So why are different animals active at different times of the day? There are a majority of factors that go into why animals adapt the way that they do, including temperature, levels of light, availability of food, and competition.

  • Northern Tanzania Birding & Wildlife in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater & Beyond
    NORTHERN TANZANIA BIRDING & WILDLIFE IN THE SERENGETI, NGORONGORO CRATER & BEYOND FEBRUARY 16–MARCH 4, 2020 Red-and-yellow Barbet (© Kevin J. Zimmer) LEADERS: KEVIN ZIMMER & ANTHONY RAFAEL LIST COMPILED BY: KEVIN ZIMMER VICTOR EMANUEL NATURE TOURS INC. 2525 WALLINGWOOD DRIVE, SUITE 1003 AUSTIN, TEXAS 78746 WWW.VENTBIRD.COM NORTHERN TANZANIA February 16–March 4, 2020 By Kevin Zimmer Retz’s Helmetshrike, Ngare Sero, February 2020 (© Kevin J. Zimmer) As has become the routine, the entire group arrived in Tanzania at least a day early to recover from the international flights and enjoy some relaxing birding on the lovely grounds of Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge, an old estate converted to an intimate tourist lodge. Here, amidst the spectacular gardens and remnant forest bordering a lily-covered pond and trout stream, we gained an introduction to African birds, including several species that we would not see elsewhere on the trip. Noteworthy among our many prizes were a group of bizarre Retz’s Helmetshrikes, wildly duetting Rüppell’s Robin-Chats, and stunning views of Collared, Amethyst, and Olive sunbirds. More expected, but no less welcome, were such ‘regulars’ as Hamerkop, a trio of African Black Ducks, loads of bickering Little Grebes, Black Crake, unusually confiding Tambourine Doves, numbers of White-eared Barbets, Kenrick’s Starling, Brown-hooded and Giant kingfishers, prehistoric looking Silvery-cheeked Hornbills, dapper Mountain Wagtails, Black-backed Puffbacks, attractive male and female Black-throated Wattle-eyes, and actively nesting Victor Emanuel Nature Tours 2 Northern Tanzania, 2020 Taveta Golden-Weavers (a regional specialty with a highly restricted range) and Grosbeak Weavers.
