Ngorongoro Plains

This day was broken into two halves. The morning was spent touring the Ngorongoro Plains where we saw a lot of migratory wilder beast together with zebras. They travel together because zebra have good eye sight and wilder beast have good sense of smell, so they protect each other. The sound of their hooves as they run was awesome. The migration is the biggest in the world, where 2.5 million migrate between Maasia Mara and Serengeti Plains. One of the exciting things that we saw was a lioness with her day old wilder beast kill that had no inner guts because she had eaten them all. She came right up to our jeep and I could see every single fly on her face (about 100!) Also, we saw a family of bat eared fox (their ears are as big as their whole face) and some blue headed and red headed gammer lizards which have very colorful heads. Just as we were about to go back for lunch, we also saw 3 cheetahs, all brothers, walking along the road and then relaxing in the shade under a tree.
We had lunch back at Ndutu lodge and watched wilder beast and elephants pass by as we sipped our soup!
