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)
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.

Situé sur une voie de migration littorale à proximité de l’océan et de la Loire, le lac de Grand-Lieu accueille 270 espèces d’oiseaux, ce qui en fait la deuxième réserve ornithologique française après la Camargue. Le Lac de Grand-Lieu est un site fragile qui forme un réservoir exceptionnel pour la biodiversité, C'est la 2ème réserve ornithologique de France après la Camargue qui abrite plus de 270 espèces d’oiseaux, 550 espèces de végétaux y sont recensées, plus de 50 espèces de mammifères sont présentes, ainsi que 30 espèces de poissons et 12 espèces de batraciens. De ce fait, il est protégé par de nombreux dispositifs environnementaux : il y a 2 réserves naturelles qui protègent le lac qui est inscrit au titre de la convention de Ramsar, comme l’une des plus belles zones humides d’Europe. Le lac est classé Natura 2000 (Site d’intérêt communautaire et Zone de Protection Spéciale), est classé, aussi, au titre de la Loi de 1930 sur 7500 ha, englobant le lac et ses rives (JO du 24 août 1982). La totalité du site inscrit couvre 32 ensembles bordant le lac, ZNIEFF de type I sur 6281 ha et bénéficie de l’application de la Loi Littoral. L’accès aux réserves du lac de Grand-Lieu est strictement interdit sans autorisation. La baignade, la pêche et toutes activités nautiques y sont donc interdites mais les affluents du lac et la base de loisirs de la Boulogne sont autant de terrains de jeux pour la pratique de ces activités. Pour observer le lac de Grand-Lieu, rendez-vous dans l’une des fenêtres ouvertes au public.
Located on a coastal migration route near the ocean and the Loire, Lake Grand-Lieu is home to 270 species of birds, making it the second largest ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue. The Lac de Grand-Lieu is a fragile site which forms an exceptional reservoir for biodiversity. It is the 2nd ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue which is home to more than 270 species of birds, 550 species of plants are listed there, more 50 species of mammals are present, as well as 30 species of fish and 12 species of batrachians. As a result, it is protected by many environmental devices: there are 2 nature reserves that protect the lake, which is listed under the Ramsar Convention as one of the most beautiful wetlands in Europe. The lake is classified Natura 2000 (Site of Community Interest and Special Protection Zone), is also classified under the Law of 1930 on 7500 ha, encompassing the lake and its shores (JO of August 24, 1982). The entire registered site covers 32 sets bordering the lake, ZNIEFF type I over 6281 ha and benefits from the application of the Coastal Law. Access to the Grand-Lieu lake reserves is strictly prohibited without authorization. Swimming, fishing and all nautical activities are therefore prohibited there, but the tributaries of the lake and the Boulogne leisure center are all playgrounds for the practice of these activities. To observe the lake of Grand-Lieu, go to one of the windows open to the public.

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.
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.

The last few days some shorebirds are showing up on our shoreline. The fall migration is starting. Isle Lake Alberta
