these Wildebeest had spent the night in the woodlands and were heading towards the Ndutu Marsh area (in the south east of the Serengeti, Tanzania )
The south east of the Serengeti is the most southern part of the annual Great Migration . It is the area where most of the Wildebeest calves are born.
Many thanks for your views, favorites and supportive comments.

A winter view south across Utah's Emigration Canyon to the higher Wasatch beyond. The canyon was first traversed by the Donner Party in 1846, and then, a year later by the Mormon pioneers who settled the Salt Lake Valley below. This became a favored route through the imposing Wasatch Mountains to the far west.
Texture: Topaz.

Au sujet de l’art…
Je profite de Migration, pour continuer à partager avec vous mes réflexions sur l’art et la photographie…Aujourd’hui: Qu’est-ce que la beauté ?
Le point de vue d’un philosophe
« Le beau est ce qui plaît universellement sans qu’on puisse dire pourquoi il nous plaît : le beau est irréductible à un concept, à un modèle, à une explication » (E. KANT)
Le point de vue de ceux qui savent 😂
« On nous apprend souvent à chercher la beauté en toutes choses… Alors pour la trouver, le profane demande conseil au philosophe, tandis que le philosophe, ne sachant pas quoi répondre, s’en remet… au photographe. » (Criss Jamy. Killosophy)

About art ...
I take advantage of Migration, to continue to share with you my thoughts on art and photography ... Today: What is beauty?
The point of view of a philosopher
« Beauty is what universally pleases without being able to say why it pleases us: beauty is irreducible to a concept, a model, an explanation » (Kant)
The point of view of those who know 😂
"We are often taught to seek beauty in all things ... So to find it, the layperson asks the philosopher, while the philosopher, not knowing what to answer, relies on ... the photographer. (Criss Jamy, Killosophy)
Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.

Wildebeest migration in the savannah of Masai Mara, Kenya.
This was close to the Kenya Tanzania border. Unfortunately I did not get to witness the crossing of the Masai River.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated...
Happy Travel Tuesday
Every year the Trumpeter Swans stop in this flooded field just outside of Grand Bend,Ontario. They are headed north as far as the Artic.

Well, here we are on the other side of the downtime,
how did it go for you? After the 3 days I was just
happy to see I still have a photostream , ay! ;-)
happy sliderssunday and Memorial Day!
Not the greatest photo you'll see - I had to maneuver and shoot through the bush to get this, but luckily I was able to use it to blend out the background a little more, otherwise it'd be a little too busy. Still, I rarely, in fact never get this close.
No, not a bird, in fact I never really shoot insects, but this monarch in cloudy conditions with goldenrod blurred in the background I couldn't resist...
Just a small portion of the 1000's of Trumpeter Swans and some ducks. They were startled as I approached. This is a tiny section of the flock spread over two large flooded farm fields divided by a road.

An image from last spring in Prince Edward County - I have one week or work travel before I get a chance to head back there for a few days to check in on the migration.
Last year my visit coincided with a major push of Grosbeaks and Orioles, and they were everywhere along the shore, in flocks. I had not witnessed a landing by so many of a single species before, let alone a species that one is lucky to find, let alone photograph, in Ottawa.
My preference is always to find birds in habitat and to situate them as such in images, but every once in a while opportunities arise for a completely clean image.
This spring I heard the soft gurgling song of an Eastern Bluebird. I thought it couldn't possibly be, since bluebirds don't inhabit the woods. I looked up and there she was looking around, just long enough for me to get a shot off. She could see this wasn't the right place for her to raise her family. Our property surrounded by large trees just wouldn't do. Glad she stopped by.

If you look carefully, I think you can spot eighteen monarchs nectaring on the Joe Pyes here. It was a beautiful day to get to witness this marvel of nature as these butterflies make their way from Canada to Mexico.
Not usually my style to include man made houses and things but for some reason I love this shot. Hundreds of Sandhill Cranes migrating across Colorado. The Sangre de Cristo mountain range in the background.
This Cooper's Hawk saw a lot to whet his appetite with all of the birds that made a stop in our woods during migration.
Lots of warblers on the move in the last few days .Fall migration is happening here.
Backyard Isle Lake
A lifer bird and a surprise in and around the Longpoint area earlier this migration. Since this was at the side of a busy road impossible to get eye level without trespassing so here is my best shot with a reflection!
