Spectacular bird life is everywhere as well, from the vibrant colors of the lilac breasted roller to the delicate head feathers of the crowned crane.

Travel Tales
Well-known travel writer Pico Iyer once wrote that “Travel for me is all about transformation, and I’m fascinated by those people who really do come back from a trip unrecognizable to themselves and perhaps open to the same possibilities they’d have written off not a month before.”
Conservation
Every time Joe Charleson takes guests from Leleshwa Camp into the surrounding Mara Siana Conservancy, he notices something different. Dry stubble has given way to fresh green grass. Giraffe and zebra hoofprints outnumber those of cattle. Where there were once flocks of goats, hundreds strong, there are now even bigger flocks of gazelles.
