Migration Update - March 8th 2007
The rains have eased off in the last two weeks and the plains have been drying out. Consequently, the herds are moving off the shortest grass, which dries up the first, and into the mid length grass towards mti mitatu/Naabi/Kusini plains. There are still sizeable numbers in the Makao area.The calving is in full swing, as per our last report, and the carnivores are in attendance licking their lips. It looks as if the calving will continue for a couple more weeks and then the numbers should trail off.
The weather charts show showers for the weekend and onwards. The rains may bring them back onto the short grass plains if they are heavier enough to refresh the grass.
