Wildebeest calving at Ndutu March 5, 2010Life in the Serengetimike In the south of the Serengeti ecosystem the soil is regularly renewed by volcanic ash, this helps to produce some of the richest grassland in Africa. Ndutu is in the heart of this area and it is here that the Wildebeest give birth to their calves as the rich grass helps them to produce sufficient milk. But the Wildebeest herds do not pause and calves have to be walking within a few minutes of birth and running soon after. These images were taken round Ndutu in February and attempt to give a glimpse into the lives and deaths of these remarkable animals.

Tanzania animals and birds 2006 November 17, 2008Life in the Serengetimike In May wildebeest and zebra pass through the Seronera area of the Serengeti National Park on their great migration. In May 2006 the grassland at Seronera was very lush and the number of animals particularly high. On this page I have tried to give feel of what it is like to be in the middle of the migration and the restless movement of vast herds of wildebeest and zebra. I have also included some of the other birds and animals that interact with and depend on the migration. We used Roy Safaris for this trip, their excellent guide was largely responsible for our incredible experience and the images we were able to capture. www.roysafaris.com
Serengeti and Ngorongoro March 2008 August 19, 2008Life in the Serengetimike Northern Tanzania is home to the bulk of the Serengeti ecosystem, which is protected by many National Parks and Conservation areas. The diversity and populations of animal and bird life is breathtaking. On this page I have tried to give an impression of this diversity. The images here were taken in a two week period at the end of March 2008 in the Ngorongoro crater, Ngorongoro Conservation area and the Serengeti National Park. I have included the more commonly seen species such as wildebeest and zebra, there are also images of less often seen animals such as the honey badger. On this trip we took several thousand images and will change the content of this page to reflect the area’s incredible richness. Please keep coming back to this site to see these new images. We used Roy Safaris for this trip (for the third time) and their excellent guide was largely responsible for our incredible experience and the images we were able to capture.

Leopard Ngorongoro CA March 2008 August 15, 2008Life in the Serengetimike All the images on this page were taken in and around the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in the Southern Serengeti ecosystem. Leopards are always present in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area but are not seen here as reliably as in the Seronera river valley. These photographs are of three different individuals one of whom had at least one cub with her, unfortunately I was unable to photograph the cub, next time maybe? Many thanks to Roy Safaris and their excellent guide, perhaps the best leopard finder in Tanzania!

Lions in the Serengeti March 2008 August 15, 2008Life in the Serengetimike Lions are relatively abundant in the Serengeti ecosystem, there is little conflict with man and a regular supply of food. However being at the top of the food chain lions are vulnerable to natural and man made pressures, the Serengeti remains a haven for them. During the day lions spend most of their time resting and sleeping, they mostly hunt under the cover of darkness. On this page I have tried to show some images of activity other than resting and sleeping. These photographs were taken in the Ngorongoro crater, Ngorongoro Conservation area and the Serengeti National Park during a two week stay at the end of March 2008. We took many more images of Lions on this trip, please revisit this page to see new images. Many thanks to Roy Safaris and their excellent guide!
