Migration Update - 26th July 2010

The bulk of the migration is now in the northern Serengeti - between Wogakuria and Bologonja - with just some stragglers left coming up from the Grumeti area. Our Serengeti Safari Camp is perfectly placed right in the middle of all the action; guests out with our Nomad guides last week saw fantastic wildebeest crossings at the Mara River - also plenty of cats: lionesses taking down a wildebeest at Woga, a family of cheetah sitting surveying a long line of wildebeests, from their high vantage point atop a termite mound, and a leopard killing a young gazelle right in front of the car. They also saw a rhinoceros and a youngster near Nyamalumbwa, Bologonja.

Migration Update - 5th July 2010

As per the last posting, the migratory herds are still split with one lot still in the Western Corridor/Grumeti area (mostly north of the river) and the other now in Bologonja in the northern Serengeti. We will be shortly moving up to Bologonja as the herds start to head north (we're anticipating towards the end of the month). In the meantime, Nomad guests continue to enjoy the sightings from our camp in Simiti. The rains have ceased, and the nights are getting cooler as we head into winter. Lion and cheetah have been seen by most guests this last week too.

Migration Update - 24th June 2010

The migratory herds have separated into two distinct groups - one in the Western Corridor/Grumeti area and one in north-east Serengeti and northern Loliondo area. Our Nomad mobile camps are operating in both areas and have them covered. We are expecting the western herd to to start moving north to the Mara River area towards the end of July.
