A week on Safari With J Looseyia.


SHAKIRA THE WISE MUM.


Dear All ,
This is how it went,
My Friend Dr. arrive to our camp from another camp in the mara at about 12 pm we meet them and show the tents and before lunch he said to me I m coming up for a drink Jackson up in the mess, I said sure I will be there waiting.
A few min he arrive the puffing like he have been running but that was the case he was very exited to be with me for a whole week.
I said Dr. O'Neill, before we go and have the best of rekero Salads please let us make a plan.
First what have you seen in the last camp as far as cats are concern?, He look at me and said '' Nothing not one cat " I smile a little now I know I really have pressure here but I know where to and where to find them.
We are living camp at Three get every one ready, lunch was great every enjoy the company of each other as always is the rekero atmosphere.
After we have finish arranging drinks with James the second Guide with me, with me guiding this group I had yet another meeting with them, guys we are going to see shakira first because she is heading toward the border.
The light was great we look around the savanna searching for the mama shakira and the girls, after we had cross the rongai river I look under the a gardenia tree. I said there she is very exited call on the radio for our second car she is here, we went in slowly to meet our fist cat in the mara and not just a cat but a friend and champion that every human will pay respect.
I look at the girls and how big there now and in fact they eat every thing shakira was looking hungry still one tomy is not enough for them now she need to be killing at list two animals in one day if she need to eat as well.
The evening light was just perfect my guest could not believe how big the girls have grown from seen them on tv during big cat about a year now to this present day every was nearly in teas of joy.
We spend the whole after noon just with shakira and the girls a lot while we had drink in between.
Every min was precious as you can imagine the love I have for this little family, Shakira will live the cubs very soon its just a matter of time before they go different ways, this will be the great news for all of us who live here in the maasai mara to wetness a success story and a dream come true.
After we had finish our sundowners we headed home while the every one including me were very happy indeed.

Wait for day two.


 

Its a great week.

To all my friends

Moja mbili tatu.



Hamjambo,
It is another great day for us in the office the girls for the fast time being witness a kill on there owen the mama look like she was not intrested on what is happening.
At this time they killed a young wildebeest haa, very anbesias girls but they did.
As you can see the girls which one time are led by shakira away from the wildebeest are now asking there mama where the ngus.
Just this morning we sow this girls run into the great savanna on the burungat pains and we thought just looking for something els to eat.
To our all surprise shakira did not follow or show any interest but all the three girls charge and brought down a young wildebeest shakira walk in very slowly until she arrive to the sin as nothing had happen.
Although it was very gory to watch but the bottom line is they can hunt on there own now well done mama Shakira for upbringing this great hunters to our planet well done I say again.
Every time I see something like this happened My heat melt and goes on to remember moyo the mother of Miujisa she would have been doing the same to our little star but its in our hands.
I m glad to tell every one that this girls have made it, only a matter of time they will be on there own for ever.

Salaams to you

The ridge pride


Once again the Ridge pride had paform well this morning they made the best they need for all thirteen of them a Zebra.
As I was laying in bed I got woken up by a nomardic male lion who has been following the pride for almost month but as it such on there was no luck.
The pride went towards the ridge and hide there for most of the night and then a surprise a small group of zebras came to there view.
One of the guides said there here but look like hunting come slow.
Fred and John are the main guides in the two lucky groups in camp and the show started, We thought fist they will go for the small one in the group but they aim high and got the largest of all the main stallion.
I feel good for them since its a large pride and had been chase around by this young nomadic male.
Where is he from we don't know I will only think from TZ.
All good for the pride 

Salaams

The ridge pride


Goodmorning all,
After a short brake at home now back to the maasai mara.
One day after I started asking where is Kali, and Olive they guides said not far from camp just around the conner.
While I thought when to go out and look for one of them just to fill better after such bad news of Mama ya lorian.
I sow One lion near the camp, which lions are those no one can tell, I jump into a landcuicer with Charlie, Sam, and there ayah Pricila.
This is the Ridge pride great news 8 of them, there look nervers I dont know what is happening with them though must be some changer.
Last evening Kereto so a young Male with two of the females of this pride it could be a big change for them.
Where about is Snuggle tooth we don't know he is gone we have not seen him for a few months, the last time was seen near our camp near Rhino ridge but after that we don't know what had happen.
I went to the transmara for a day and ask if any one have seen him and a ranger said he left to Lamai Wage serengeti in May.
He was chase a few times by the young upcoming boys and I think he had enough so he left.
This pride is always close to our camp I had follow for years since this Large females are Cubs and  all of this subadult you see are born not far from our camp.
If any one see Snuggle tooth soon please let us now if your on safari in transmara of Seregeti west.
See you soon 
Here.
