The Itinerary: DAY 1: Nairobi – Masai Mara National Park Depart from Nairobi at 0700 Hrs for a 4-5 hour drive to beginin the Maasai Mara Safari route. Our drive will take us through the Great Rift Valley, the 5,600-kilometer fault line that extends from Ethiopia’s Red Sea through Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi and into Mozambique and has over time created a fascinating landscape, As we set out, our first scenic views will be the spectacular escarpments and expansive floors of the valley laden with patches of whistling thorn acacia plants. The valley gradually gives way to rolling shrub land, with predominantly wooded bush land and riveting vegetation along the streams and dry river beds. After a brief stopover to stretch our legs, we continue the Maasai Mara safari route via the Loita plains with the Loita Hills in the background. We will arrive in time for lunch and afternoon game drive in the African wild L-D Option A: Camping – Budget Option B: Ol Moran Tented Camp- Midrange Option C: Sentirm Mara Camp – Luxury DAY 2: Masai Mara Safari Game Drives (Wildlife Viewing) After breakfast, we proceed for a full day of game drives in the Mara. The Maasai Mara Game Reserve is largely plains and open grasslands, a habitat to rich and varied African wildlife including lions, leopards, cheetahs, buffalo, zebras, giraffes, several species of birds and more. The annual migration of millions of wildebeests, zebras and gazelles between July to September is a spectacle not to be missed by any visitor to the Mara. The Itinerary: The wildebeest, who travel in herds for more than 900 kilometers crossing from the Serengeti plains north to the Maasai Mara, encounter their final obstacle at the Mara River. The Masai Mara is drained majorly by the famous River Mara, and the Mara River crossing is one of the most astonishing and absorbing spectacles, especially with the hungry crocodiles ready to pounce. After a Masai Mara safari full day of taking in nature’s sights, we return to the camp in the evening B-L-D Option A: Camping – Budget Option B: Ol Moran Tented Camp- Midrange Option C: Sentirm Mara Camp – Luxury DAY 3: Maasai Mara – Nairobi We will rise early on our final day of the Masai Mara safari (6:00am) for an early morning game drive for an opportunity to glimpse the activity of the nocturnal and semi-nocturnal animals that are rarely active during the heat of the day.

    KENYA and TANZANIA TRIP REPORT Sept 25-Oct 23, 2009 PART 1 - Classic Kenya text and photos by Adrian Binns Sept 25 / Day 1: Blue Post Thika; Castle Forest We began the morning with an unexpected Little Sparrowhawk followed by a Great Sparrowhawk, both in the skies across the main road from the Blue Post Hotel in Thika. The lush grounds of the Blue Post are bordered by the twin waterfalls of the Chania and Thika, both rivers originating from the nearby Aberdare Mountain Range. It is a good place to get aquatinted with some of the more common birds, especially as most can be seen in close proximity and very well. Eastern Black-headed Oriole, Cinnamon-chested Bee- eater, Little Bee-eater, White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher, Collared Sunbird, Bronzed Mannikin, Speckled Mousebird and Yellow-rumped Tinkerbird were easily found. Looking down along the river course and around the thundering waterfall we found a pair of Giant Kingfishers as well as Great Cormorant, Grey Heron and Common Sandpiper, and two Nile Monitors slipped behind large boulders. A fruiting tree provided a feast for Yellow-rumped Seedeaters, Violet-backed Starlings, Spot-flanked Barbet (right), White-headed Barbet as a Grey-headed Kingfisher, an open woodland bird, made sorties from a nearby perch. www.wildsidenaturetours.com www.eastafricanwildlifesafaris.com © Adrian Binns Page 1 It was a gorgeous afternoon at the Castle Forest Lodge set deep in forested foothills of the southern slope of Mt. Kenya. While having lunch on the verandah, overlooking a fabulous valley below, we had circling Long-crested Eagle (above right), a distant Mountain Buzzard and African Harrier Hawk.

Hill, Pietermaritzburg. 6 Fire-as Master and Servant: Its Influence in the Bioclimatic Regions of Trans-Saharan Africa JOHN PHILLIPS* DESPITE MAN's remarkable advances in so many fields of endeavor in Trans-Saharan Africa, there is still much he does not know regarding some of the seemingly simple matters of life and living in the "Dark" Continent: One of these blanks in our knowldege is how the most effectively to thwart fire as an uncontrolled destroyer of vegetation and how best to use it to our own advantage. We know fire as a master, we have learned some­ thing about fire as a servant-but we still have much to do before we can direct this servant so as to win its most effective service. I review-against a background of the literature and a personal ex­ perience .of over half a century-some of the matters of prime inter­ est and significance in the role and the use of fire in Trans-Saharan Africa. These include, inter alia, the sins of the master and the merits of the servant, in a range of bioclimatic regions from the humid for­ ests, through the various gradations of aridity of the wooded savanna to .the subdesert. In an endeavor to discuss the whole subject objectively and sys­ tematically, I have dealt with the effects of fire upon vegetation, upon animal associates, upon aerillI factors and upon the complex fac­ tors of the soil.

    Kenya Nairobi-amboseli-Samburu mount Kenya-Lake Nakuru- Lake Naivasha-masai mara 13 Days | African Charm & Close to Nature DAY 1 Destination: Arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport; Transfer to Nairobi Accommodations: Ololo Safari Lodge Activities: Optional Game Drive Arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. After clearing customs, you will be met by your expert naturalist guide and transferred to the lovely Ololo Safari Lodge, an elegant, thatched-roof African manor situated right on the edge of the African wilderness, overlooking Nairobi National Park. Just outside of Nairobi’s central business district is Nairobi National Park, Kenya’s first national park established in 1946. This park is iconic for its wide open grass plains and scattered acacia bush with the city of Nairobi’s skyscrapers in the backdrop. Despite its small size and proximity to human civilization, this park plays host to a wide variety of wildlife including lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, buffaloes, giraffes and diverse birdlife with over 400 species recorded. As well, it is home to one of Kenya’s most successful rhino sanctuaries, and you are likely to see the endangered black rhino here. After settling in, you will meet with your guide to briefly go over your safari itinerary. Enjoy a lovely lunch, featuring Ololo’s garden grown produce and eggs. You then have the option of going on a late afternoon game drive into Nairobi National Park or staying at the lodge, perhaps taking a dip in the pool, walking around the beautiful gardens, reading a book by the fire, or enjoying a drink on the terrace overlooking the park.

  • Fire and Conservation of the Habitat in Kenya
    Fire and Conservation of the Habitat in Kenya P. M. OLINDa Director, Kenya National Parks, Nairobi, Kenya INTRODUCI'ION U sing the words of Phillips, "despite the dread danger of burning when it is feckless, wanton, casual or accidental, there are great possibilities for its use as a tool in the management of the savanna regions of Africa and these possibilities require much more study in the future, particularly the timing and frequency of burning in local environments." THE EFFECI'S OF FIRE AND OTHER INFLUENCES ON THE HABITAT A great deal of research has been conducted in the past 50 years in the vast areas of savanna country in Africa south of the Sahara, both from the agricultural and pastoral aspects. Reference to the UNESCO vegetation map of Africa gives some idea of the extent of savanna in this continent. Fire, shifting cultivation, and grazing are the major factors respon­ sible for the formation and maintenance of savanna country. Bush fires have exerted a profound influence on the vegetation of Africa (Fig. 1) for so long that fire has become an important limiting factor, of almost equal importance in its effect to topography and climate. The prolonged effects of fire upon the savanna habitat have 243 FIG. 1. Fire encroachment in the Mau Forest. resulted in the development of special fire-resistant communities of plants and animals which are dependent on periodic burning for their existence (Fig. 2). Examples of these communities are the open grassy plains and woodlands of tropical and sub-tropical Africa which were inhabited by vast herds of plains game such as zebra (Equus spp.), wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus (Burchell», Thomson's gazelle, (Gazelle thomsonii Gunther), kongoni (Alcelaphus-busela­ phus Pallas), topi (Damaliscus korrigum (Ogilby», etc.

  • Mara Expedition Camp Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya
    FACT SHEET MARA EXPEDITION CAMP MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE, KENYA “This is a brand new camp, positioned on high ground in a grove of typical East African acacia trees overlooking a valley in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve. It is on private land, so very exclusive but with access to some of the region’s best wildlife. The camp tells the story of early day explorers with touches of campaign furniture and open air space under light canvas. It is an ideal camp, from which to start your safari looking for big cats such as cheetah and lion. Most days you don’t even have to go very far!” - Dereck Joubert, CEO Mara Expedition Camp is a magical revisiting of the past, drawing from Africa’s original explorers’ designs and designed for those who search for East Africa’s romantic safari era. Here, you will experience the best of both worlds: the intense action of the Maasai Mara ecosystem, as well as the more private 70,000-acre Mara North Conservancy. Mara Expedition Camp is a stylish experience and adventure camp unique to the industry and fits the service levels, specialised guiding and design that has become associated with Great Plains Conservation. It is safari chic with five light and airy, spacious canvas tents, each with en-suite bathrooms where you enjoy piping hot water from huge brass safari showers. It is set down low, hidden from lights and noise from other camps or properties or any sign of mankind. Under the grove of Africa ebony trees, its humble main area is lit by lantern and candlelit, simple in design, but just enough for all the comforts.

  • Nature, Wildlife, and the Habitat with a Discussion on Fire and Other Influences
    Nature, Wildlife, and the Habitat with a Discussion on Fire and Other Influences P. E. GLOVER Director, Tsavo Research Project, Tsavo National Park (East), Voi, Kenya "0 Earth our creator in ages past our hope for years to come our shelter from the stormy blast and our eternal home" (V. A. and M. 105). [I have substituted "Earth" for God. P. E. G.] INTRODUCTION ECOLOGISTS early divided themselves into plant and animal ecologists, and when some bold spirit began talking of human ecology he was promptly excommunicated. But within the last 10 years there has been a decided tendency to fusion. The plant ecolo­ gist has become increasingly aware of the biotic factor, and the animal ecologist has learned that geology and vegetational cover must be well understood. The "human factor" may now be studied without scientific ostracism, but the young researcher might still be advised to avoid the term human ecology. Quite rightly too; there is but one ecology, and at this moment in history, the subject of 319 P. E. GLOVER the members of men and animals considered together is ripe for investigation. Nevertheless I am ready to hazard a definition of human ecology as something more than an attitude of mind, as being that part of the science which deals with his animate habitat, of the influence of the habitat as a whole on social structure and behaviour, and of social system on the animal habitat." (Fraser Darling, 1961). The artificial term "wildlife" is used by modern "civilized" man to dissociate himself from those parts of his natural environment which he has not been able to tame, domesticate or cultivate to his own advantage.
