Masai Mara, Here We Come
After a brutal flight from Dubai to Nairobi aboard Emirates (the big guy does not do small seats very well), the three die-hard photographers will soon board our private charter flight taking us deep into the Masai Mara. Rather than spending hours on the road, I selected a private charter option to maximize our shooting time on the ground.
I was excited to hear from the camp staff last night that large herds of Wildebeests are doing their river crossing activities. With a little luck, I hope to put us right in the middle of the action. For now, here is a graphic of what is going on (Source: Mara Bush Camp Migration Report):

For a generalized look at our first destination, Mara Plains Camp, I have attached a map from their web site. While at Mara Plains, I will find time to visit the Mara Bush Camp, which I will be using for my Kenya safari next year. Off to the airport in about one hour, this will likely be my last posting for a while, unless I can catch a solid signal from the bush.
