 Update from 10th February 2013: News from Olare Owang School
On 31st of January Nicholus and me visited the school, we met Dixon, the
teacher, Mary his lady colleague and the treasurer of the School
committee.
There have been developments in the school: from the
beginning of May 2011 with the small 2-room-iron sheet classrooms to a
real school compound.
In 2012 they got 2 wooden school classrooms,
cemented floors and windows – donated by a British teacher lady and her
students. Right now there is another construction: a stone building with
2 classes. One class room funded by the Naboisho Conservancy and the
other class room funded by the Constituency Development Fund.

 28th September 2012: Latest reports reaching our office from the Maasai Mara and Mara Bush Camp reveal that our guests continue to enjoy amazing game sightings daily. The great wildebeest /animal migration is far from being over. Just recently, large herds of Wildebeests crossed the Talek River in a spectacular manner.
Overall, large herds of Wildebeest still occupy a large part of the Mara plains and lookout area with the predators taking advantage and making easy kills. This phenomenon provides breathtaking moments, good for a keen photographer and nature enthusiast.

 The second annual Charity trip for Street children took place on the 15.11.2011. Children from Boma Rescue Centre were sponsored by Sunworld Safaris to participate in a day trip to Lake Nakuru National Park.
48 children aged between 7- 17 were invited to take part in the trip. Most of these children are still undergoing rehabilitation at the rescue center after being picked from the streets where they were either sniffing glue or looking for a living by sorting out garbage at the dumping sites.
The Rescue center doesn’t offer accommodation for the children but instead they look for willing families to house them for the night. During the day they stay at the rehabilitation center.

 Not only the great wildebeest migration is a highlight in the Masai
Mara; especially in January to March the birth of many different animals
can be observed.
For excample, not far from the Mara Bush Camp a
giraffe baby and hippo baby were born. The guests of the Mara Bush Camp
were able to attend these events with great enthusiasm. Nature
photographer Alf Drosdziok was so kind to provide us with some photos of
the giraffe birth.

Ich wusste nicht, was uns in Kenia alles erwarten würde. Massentourismus und ein Öko-System, das diesen Namen nicht mehr verdiente? Diese Bedenken hatte ich zumindest. Doch wie so häufig im Leben kam alles anders. Diese 3-wöchige-Safari wurde für uns zur unvergessenen und atemberaubenden Reise.
Die sensationelle Landschaft, der Mt Kenia und der Kilimandscharo und
ganz zu schweigen, von der außergewöhnlichen hohen Tiervielfalt, all das
zusammen hat uns verzaubert.

 Our Annual charity trip for St. Johns Primary in Korogocho took place on
the 29th October 2010. A total of 57 pupils from St.John primary
visited Lake Nakuru National Park for the first time. Many of these
children are orphaned with only one parent or no parents at all and they
are supported by the Comboni Missionaries.
These children reside in
Nairobi's Korogocho slum, known for violence, great amounts of garbage,
disease and crime. The basics that we all take for granted such as
running water, sewage and 3 meals a day are non-existent.

 Ein Höhepunkt neben der atembe- raubenden Gnuwanderung war im Jahr 2010 MAMA AFRICA. Einge Gepardin mit 6 Jungen. Dies ist unglaublich selten und alle Jungen haben die ersten Wochen und Monate gut überstanden.
Durch die vielen Gnus in der Masai Mara war der Tisch für die jungen Geparden immer reich gedeckt und die Mutter schaffte es Sie mit Nahrung zu versorgen. Viele unserer Gäste welche auch im Mara Bush Camp waren, konnten MAMA AFRICA bei Ihrem täglichen Aktivitäten beobachten.

 Martin Fickert had a chance during his Safari with Sunworld Safaris to witness a rare hunt. The Cheetahs seemed to enjoy snatching the bean bags (otherwise used to take photos) from the Photographers.

 We would like to recommend to you a book by a renowned Photographer ‘Ingo Gerlach.’ This book offers a variety of information which we feel is quite useful for wildlife photography. In his book, Mr. Gerlach systematically underscores the equipment which a serious photographer needs whilst paying attention to the reader’s budget. The basic photographic techniques are clearly pointed out with practical examples coupled with a special knowledge on wildlife photography.
