East Africa -- Maasai Mara

Here is the northernmost part of that vast plain called the Serengeti ... home to antelope, zebra, giraffe, elephant, cheetah, eagle, rhino, vulture ... and lion.

Here is the beginning of the vast migrations of the region ... and the end.

Here is the beginning of the year ... and the end.

Here the Mara River stands as the first great barrier to the migration south and the last great barrier to the migration north.

Here rolling hills are dotted with bushes and trees.

Here rhino nap in the shade of the coton and giraffe trim the acacia.
