This Week At Angama #131
7 August 2020
We’ve had the pleasure this week of hosting Clement Kiragu, Mutua Matheka, Trevor Maingi, and Josh Kisamwa at the lodge. Although their photographic niches vary, they all share a common love for the place we at Angama call home – the Maasai Mara. Here’s this week’s experience in their own words. The 2020 Great Migration...
This Week At Angama #130
31 July 2020
Every year the migration unfolds in a unique way. From the time the zebra and wildebeest first arrive in the Mara, to their movements in general throughout this northern reach of their annual circuit, to when they dramatically start crossing the river in massive numbers; no two years are alike. Given Adam’s exciting blog from...
Nature Continues To Heal

The Mardi Gras (call it what you will) migration season is, you know, when the two million wildebeest, zebra, eland and Thomson’s gazelles arrive along with thousands of excited tourists and their guides.

This Week At Angama #90
25 October 2019
In last week’s blog, I shared that I had only seen one herd of about seven elephant. How quickly things can change in the Mara. This week, I must have seen close to 200 elephant in one morning drive of just three hours. The news that the wildebeest have headed back to Tanzania must have...
This Week At Angama #86
27 September 2019
Drama unfolds on a daily basis in the Mara, but never more so than when the zebra start to congregate at the infamous crocodile-infested crossing known as ‘Cul-de-sac’. It is at this exact site that I have had a number of extremely dramatic sightings this migration season. Regardless of the fact that the majority of...
