- Stunning encounters with the endangered Grévy’s zebras and black and white rhinos. All the big five of Africa are present in Lewa: Elephant, cape buffalo, lion, leopard and black rhino. Also the special northern five species live in the conservancy: Grévy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, Beisa oryx and Somali ostrich. Waterholes are a great place to observe large groups of elephants and zebras. The big plains are the hunting ground for cheetahs. Birding was truly excellent and the variety of dry savanna birds and water birds in the conservancy was stunning.
Welcome to our birding and wildlife safari to Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya in December 2020. We stayed three nights at the wonderful Lewa Wilderness Lodge. We would like to thank our travel agency DreamtimeTravel for this unforgettable Safari.
For animal identification, please refer to the video subtitle or to the species list below.
With best regards,
Sandra and Markus

Very nice 👍
Excellent video ❤
Such GREAT footage...LOVED the elephants!...It seems it's always a baby bull among the young who is the most inquisitive, approaching with his ears fanned out -- only to turn + high-tail it back to his mama!
They are so intelligent, so social and nurturing...They FASCINATE me...
TY again! 💞🌾🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🌾💞
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment, really appreciate your feedback. These little elephants are absolutely adorable. If you watch that scene closely you see, how he eyeballed us, then took his friends with him and then it was a race who gets closest to the car. In the background you see mama elephant to try to stop the youngest one with her trunk but it slipped through. Never get tired watching that scene. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
Magnifique 👌bravo très belle réalisation 👏

Hallo Doris, vielen vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar und dafür, es freut uns riesig, dass es Dir so gut gefallen hat. Lewa war wirklich atemberaubend schön! Als nächstes kommt dann Ol Pejeta, aber das dauert noch Weilchen, wir brauchen grad etwas Pause. Ganz herzliche Ostergrüsse, Sandra und Markus

Wonderful adventure, filming of the best, well done.
Travelled to Kenya myself and enjoyed everything about the place,
Now living in Australia, originally from Rhodesia now Zimbabwe.
Thank you very much for your wonderful comment. So glad you had the chance to visit this park yourself. Great news: we will visit Zimbabwe this year! So you will soon see your own country on our channel, hopefully you will like it. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
This fun I love it yay! I went there before😀
Boa noite ,casal ,20 , é uma imensa alegria revelo ......... Saúde e Vida longa ao casal.....🇧🇷✈️
Great video, perfect shooting! Amazing animals (big thumb up for the klipspringer - I have never seen one in a video- and dik diks!). Thumb down for music - space for improvement ;-).
Thank you very much and sorry that our taste of music is not your preferred choice. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
Great video. makes me wanna visit Lewa.
Dear Steven, thank you very much for your kind comment, appreciate it very much! Yes indeed, all the northern Parks in Kenya are amazing to visit: Meru, Samburu/Buffalo Springs, Lewa and Ol Pejeta. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
Wieder mal sehr schöne und beeindruckende Bilder! Mir gefällt eure Mischung aus ein wenig Bilder von der Unterkunft, Landschaft, Räuber und Herden und dann noch die Vögel. Würde aber eine eigene Safari bevorzugen, die Bilder helfen leider nicht wirklich gegen unser Fernweh. Dafür gibt es im Video die Untertitel - etwas was ich unterwegs oft vermisse. Danke euch für's Teilen eurer Reise!
Vielen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar. Es freut mich sehr, dass Dir die Mischung gefällt und dass Du die Untertitel hilfreich findest (vor allem bei den Vögeln, das ist jedesmal eine Riesenarbeit, die zu bestimmen). Viele liebe Grüsse, Markus
Hallo Sandra & Markus! Das ist wieder ein traumhaft schönes Safari-video. Großartig zusammen gestellt und mit beeindruckender Vielfalt an Tieren.
Danke für diesen "Kurzurlaub" der Sinne.
Frohe Ostern wünscht euch Jörg
Hallo Jörg, vielen herzlichen Dank für Deinen tollen Kommentar, das freut uns riesig, dass Dir das Video gefallen hat. Der Park war wirklich wunderschön und mit der grössten Population von Grevy Zebras und einem Breit- und Spitzmaulnashorn-Schutzgebiet natürlich absolut sehenswert. Auch Dir und deiner Familie ganz frohe Ostern und viele herzliche Grüsse, Sandra und Markus

Thank you for such a wonderful video 💚🦏

Cudowna Kenia. Gratuluje kapitalnych filmów. oglądam wszystkie.
Dear Michal, thank you very much for your wonderful comment, appreciate it very much! So glad you enjoy watching our videos. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
What language? Polish?

Hi great footage again. One question. At minute 15 you’ve indicated Plains Zebra but it looks like there’s a mix of Plains and Grevy’s Zebra?
I see further on there’s again a mix of both zebra species. Do they not hybridize?
Thank you very much for your kind comment, appreciate it very much! So glad to hear that you enjoyed watching our videos. Correct, the group before 15.00 is a mix of plains and Gravy, but the small one with it's mother is a plains zebra and that was what we intended to lable. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
No, those species are not known to crossbreed in the wild (but biologically they could). They just happen to like the same spot and hang out there together. You also see it at the waterhole where groups of Gravy's and plains are coming and going, but they stay among themselves.
Yet another amazing video, thanks so much for posting these!
If you had to choose between Lewa Wilderness and Elsa's Kopje in the 2nd half of November, which one would win and why?
Dear Andre, thank you very much for your kind comment, appreciate it very much. Well, that's a very tought decision. Overall we had better wildlife sightings in Lewa and you are allowed to go offroad there too, but the lodge Elsa's Kopje is truly outstanding with that unique location on top of the hill. Wow, I would not want to make that decision. Wishing you all the best and best regards, Markus
@@SandraMarkusTrachsel Thanks Markus for those insights! Believe it or not, we're still struggling to make up our minds (first world problems I know...). This would be for 3 nights, in combination with 4 nights at Mara Plains. Does that swing things in either direction for you?
Hi Andre, hmmm... whether you go to Mara afterwards (make sure you do the ballon ride there, did you check out our Mara video about that?) does not make a difference in your choice. If your main focus is on animal sightings then I would prefere Lewa at this point. But the lodge Elsa's Kopje is a dream (we had the "honeymoon suite, room #1", you can see it in our video, the balcony is just outstanding). But honestly, you can flip a coin, it will not make a difference. You simply can't go wrong with either choice. Best regards, Markus
Ihr werdet immer besser! Super gemacht! Habt ihr schon das 150-400 f4.5? VG Stefan
Hallo Stefan, vielen Dank für deinen tollen Kommentar. Nein, das Objektiv werden wir nicht kaufen :-) Ganz viele Grüsse, Markus
