IT WAS GOOD FUN WHEN THOSE INQUISITIVE HYENA CUBS COME OUT FROM THE DEN TO INVESTIGATE OUR CAR IN MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE.

IT WAS A FANTASTIC MOMENT WHEN I DESCOVERED A NEW NESTING SITE OF THE RARE CROWNED EAGLE IN THE KARURA FOREST OF NAIROBI.

THIS FOREST IS NOW WELL PROTECTED AND, DESPITE TO BE SURROUNDED BY THE BUSY NAIROBI METROPOLIS, IS SLOWLY RECOVERING HIS ORIGINAL WILD STATUS.

THE CROWNED EAGLE NEST IS A POWERFUL SIGNAL OF HOPE FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS IMPORTANT ENVIROMENT.

EVERY YEAR A LARGE POPULATION OF HUMPBACK WHALES MIGRATES FROM ANTARCTICA TO THE WARM WATER OF MADAGASCAR. THE WATERS OF THE THINY ISLAND OF SAINT MARIE BECOME THEATRE OF ONE OF THE GREATEST SHOW IN NATURE, WITH MALE WHALES FIGHTING FOR A MATE, AND FEMALE GIVING BIRTH TO IMPRESSIVE ONE TON “BABY WHALES”.  BY NOW THEY ALL  STARTED THE LONG JOURNEY BACK HOME.

A VERY EARLY MIGRATION THIS YEAR FOR THE MAASAI MARA. THE WILDEBEEST ARE ALREADY ROAMING THE PLAINS OF THE FAMOUS NATIONAL RESERVE.

THE BEST MOMENT FOR NATURE ENTHUSIASTS!

THE LAKES OF THE RIFT VALLEY IN KENYA ARE CHANGING SHAPE. WATER LEVEL IS RISING IN LAKE NAIVASHA, LAKE NAKURU, LAKE BARINGO AND BOGORIA LIKE NEVER BEFORE IN RECENT TIMES.

THESE TWO PICTURES ARE FROM LAKE NAKURU. I TAKEN THE FIRST ON 2011 WHEN IT WAS NORMAL TO DRIVE ALONG THE SHORE OF THE LAKE, WATCHING FLAMINGOS.  I  TAKEN THE SECOND PICTURE , FROM THE SAME POINT OF WIEW , ONLY FEW WEEKS AGO ( 2014). THE ACACIA FOREST IS NOW WELL INSIDE THE LAKE, WITH HUNDREDS OF TREES NOW FALLING DEAD IN THE WATER.

SO FAR, NO OFFICIAL EXPLANATION IS BEEN GIVEN ABOUT THIS ECOLOGICAL DISASTER.
