The Masai Mara park has the largest concentration of African lions, including the black-manned lion. Kenya Animals seen at Masai Mara Safari Kenya Birdlife is as plentiful as wildlife at the Masai Mara, which boasts over 400 different bird species. The park experiences a hot and dry climate with a regular rainfall season twice a year. The reserve’s topography is mainly open savannah (grassland) with clusters of acacia trees along the southeastern area of the park.
Lake Nakuru National Park was created in 1961 around Lake Nakuru, near Nakuru Town. It is best known for its thousands, sometimes millions of flamingos nesting along the shores. The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognizable due to the continually shifting mass of pink. The number of flamingos on the lake varies with water and food conditions and the best vantage point is from Baboon Cliff. Also of interest is an area of 188 km (116 mi) around the lake fenced off as a sanctuary to protect giraffes as well as both black and white rhinos.
The Samburu region encompasses not only the Samburu but also the Shaba National Reserves and Buffalo Springs, and includes the adjoining grasslands and thorn scrub of Loisaba, Laikipia and Lewa Downs extending to the foothills of Mount Kenya. With the magnificent Ewaso Ngiro River running through the region and with its characteristic African landscape of acacia forests, doub palms and distant hills, the Samburu region is more than just well worth a visit.
