Wildebeest Migration

During Covid 19 Pademic we didn't receive many tourists in Kenya. This was a good opportunity for me to visit Maasai Mara National Park since the hotels had great offers. It was Wildebeest migration and this year they recorded the highest number from Serengeti National Park. This is considered among the wonders of the world. They migrate from the month of July to the beginning of September for greener pastures and mating to Kenya. This gave me a great opportunity to capture them as they jump the Mara River, later they migrate back to Tanzania to give birth.
