Like August, September has been another great month for game viewing at Singita Grumeti Reserves. Good rains coupled with the fire management plan have resulted in a green carpet of grass and acres of wild flowers throughout the property.

The game has dispersed over a far greater area compared to last month as water and lush grass is available everywhere. Zebra have descended here in their thousands and seem to be the most numerous of the huge herds of general game. The Beribai area has been host to them as well as herds of up to eighty eland, hundreds of topi, buffalo and many more.

The Sasakwa dam has been full to capacity but has not attracted herds of game to drink as water is freely available in natural pans, streams and the Grumeti River has been flowing strongly. The three resident hippos have been obliging with every visit to the dam putting on a show on cue.  The hippo bull is particularly active and will demonstrate his intentions if you venture into the water.
