Buffalo Springs NR

Bison Springs has a healthy wildlife populace, including four of the Big five animals aside from rhinos. The reserve’s acclimated leopards are simpler to spot here just like other wildlife including; Beisa oryx, reticulated giraffe, hippos, gerenuk, greater kudu, lesser kudu, Burchell's zebra, and Grevy's zebras, which are ample and can be regularly seen brushing in the reserve. 

Visitors will be able to spot gerenuk, who stand up on their rear legs to reach leaves that are out of reach. Referred to as giraffe gazelle, its bizarrely long neck combined with a gazelle-like body is effectively recognizable. Waterbuck can be seen on the banks of the Ewaso Ng'iro River, home to crocodiles who invest a great deal of energy luxuriating on the shoals. Among the predators, lions are more elusive than the leopards in Buffalo Springs National Reserve and there is an enormous number of striped hyenas. 

Buffalo Springs can be visited all year round, but heavy rainfall might create challenges. There is rain along the coast throughout the year. The best time for wildlife viewing is in the Dry season from June to October. Wildlife is simpler to spot since vegetation is more slender and animals assemble around predictable water sources.

Buffalo Springs National Reserves have more than 365 bird species recorded. The dry, open country offers exceptionally compensating birding experiences. The region holds various northeast African dry-country species that are imparted to Ethiopia and Somalia. A portion of the heavyweights to pay special mind to are Somali ostrich, vulturine guineafowl and Abyssinian ground hornbill. The reserve has a few species of sunbirds, sparrows, larks, and starlings, for example, black-bellied sunbird, Hunter's Sunbird, pink-breasted lark, red-winged Lark, singing hedge lark, bristle-delegated starling, and brilliant breasted starling.

Buffalo Springs is a bird-watching utopia and produces good birding year-round. Birdwatching is excellent because numerous uncommon, dry-country specials are here constantly. The birding possibly improves when the migratory birds check in from November to April. The short and long rains peak during November and April, so remember that when arranging your outing.
