The Kenya Tanzania border is known for its large sized animal migrations.  Depending on the season one can witness the migration of wildebeests from Serengeti to Maasai Mara or the reverse pattern. From May to July August September the  wildebeests, zebras and gazelles  start migrating crossing the grumeti river to Mara crossing the Mara River.    When Mara becomes dry from October November they start migrating back to serengati   The calving season is January Frebraury  and this happens only in Serengeti National Reserve. Well we landed up in Mara first and saw the huge herds of wildebeests already in the Mara region.  There was another group of thousands of wildebeests patiently waiting to cross the Mara River to get into Maasai Mara.  The beats  waited; the crocodiles waited;  and we waited in anticipation to see the river crossing  - but nothing happened.    So we followed our itinerary and drove down through the Kenya Tanzania border to reach Serengeti National Park staring at 7.0
