Birds & Wildlife
While on your trip in Turkana lake, we can observe birdlife and wildlife in this special environment.
Pure nature of Lake Turkana
The area is characterised by semi-desert
habitat and vegetation is at its minimal and this is witnessed on both sides of
the lake.
Birdlife around Lobolo and Lake Turkana
An early wake-up-call
with a cup of tea/coffee to enjoy sunrise before you embark on a morning walk
along the beach to enjoy the view, the lake breeze, birds/bird’s-calling and
Turkana community domestic animals coming down to quench their thirst. Our seasonal near
by lagoon is a haven for flamingos, pelicans, herons, sacred ibis and many other
water-bird species, the list is endless.
Wildlife mainly in Sibiloi National park
