The leopard moved silently through dense thickets, with eyes locked on his prey. He slunk low to the ground and waited, then circles behind a baboon troop with tremendous patience. He had time on his side and watched as they settled down.
The baboon patriarch lifted his nose to the wind and smelled the leopard. He intently scanned the bush and tilted his head to listen. The leopard’s eyes never left two young baboons whose play took them further from the baobab’s safety. A sharp bark from the patriarch brought the young scampering back.

Birding is one of the more prominent activities in the Serengeti, next to wildlife viewing. The park has over 500 bird species flying over the endless savannah, shrubland in the hills, and riverine forests. Many are rare, like the Kori bustard, secretary birds, and lesser flamingos.
