Northern Serengeti

Yellow Billed Stork fishing in a small stream that empties into the Mara river in Tanzania. It was great to see all the big named animals, but seeing all the amazing birds was also a fantastic part of the safari

Another of the Leopard enjoying his meal up in a tree. This was on a trip from the amazing Ubuntu camp north in Tanzania. I wrote about my experience at http://circlingthebucketlist.com/index.php/2018/09/17/the-serengeti-and-ubuntu-north/

A leopard running away from attention. If any are interested in reading about my time in the Serengeti I have put up a new post about my time there at @asiliaafrica Ubuntu camp. http://circlingthebucketlist.com/index.php/2018/09/17/the-serengeti-and-ubuntu-north/

I saw this antelope in east Africa on a day trip from Ubuntu camp North. Can you guess what it is? I blog about my travels at http://circlingthebucketlist.com/index.php/2018/09/17/the-serengeti-and-ubuntu-north/

In the end watching the Wildebeast cross the Mara river is really just seeing a huge heard of creatures which you at this point have probably already scene 1000's of in previous days on your trip cross a river. However scenes like this happen through out sometimes so quick you can miss it. If you look carefully you can see a massive Nile Crocodile just miss taking this wildebeest into a watery grave. This one made it but there were dozens of crocodiles and many others did not make it. A crossing just kind of exemplifies the struggle of life out in the African plains. This was on a trip from @asiliaafrica Ubuntu Camp north which @africaadventureconsultants helped me plan.
