Wonderful footage from a crossing at Lookout

Hi Carel, some wonderful footage from a crossing at Lookout, taken by our silver guide Patrick Koriata. Images were taken by Patrick whilst sharing the company of regular Kicheche visitor ‘Greg Du Toit’ current Wildlife Photographer of the year. Our usual abundance of cats in Olare Motorogi have been giving our guests some fantastic game drives. Nearly 70 Lions, plenty of leopards and a smattering of cheetahs have now been infiltrated by the gnu masses. Death, destruction and lots of young cubs are all available to our guests, on the plains, not in camp! Amazingly we still have a few bednights available for the end of Oct so tell everyone to hurry. Regards Darren

Herds are slowly moving through Olare Motorogi

Hi Carel, yes, there are wildebeest everywhere – we even have one resident in camp with a broken leg although not sure how long he will last! It seems that the remaining herds both resident and some migratory herds are slowly moving through Olare Motorogi and moving south west at present, for now the movement is slow, enough water and grass.

Lots of wildebeest on both sides

Morning Carel Quick update from the conservancies, Olare Motorogi and Naboisho have had plenty of rain so lots of wildebeest on both sides, there seems to be more on its way and it is wonderful to have them with us for a change. We of course have the added benefit of night drives and walking so that adds to the experience. Picture attached by Emma to show you the late rain that certainly would have effected the Mara River water level. Regards Darren (image Emma Geary, camp manager at Kicheche Bush Camp)

Action in Olare Motorogi

Hi Carel The Olare Motorogi conservancy has been giving our guests some fantastic game drives. With our local Moniko lion pride nearly at 30 again including their 6 week old cubs, leopard everywhere, Acacia with cub, Pinknose, Fig and 2 unknown males. Then the dramatic crossing documented so well in the reserve. Some great images of the carnage at the crossing by 18yr old Tom Whittle. Keep well, Darren and Emma
