Day 69 – On Safari in Serengeti

Serengeti National Park – Seronera Wildlife Lodge

Serengeti is a huge place, it seems just pure chance what you find on your safari. Elephants, giraffes, buffalo etc abound, the cats are a little more difficult to find. Without an experienced guide with their unbelievable eyes it would be difficult to find the more obscure cats. Today we were lucky and came across a cheetah sitting on a rock, being the only car around we managed to drive right up next to it – amazingly it was totally unfazed by us, being much more interested in keeping its eye on the lion watching it in the distance. Later on we came across lions, part of the wildebeest/zebra migration and two large leopards (in different trees and hours apart)  – a successful day on safari!
