Big Five – FeedAccording to the Oxford Dictionary, the definition of epilogue is:
ep·i·logue
/ˈepəˌlôɡ,ˈepəˌläɡ/
noun
A section or speech at the end of a book or play that serves as a comment on or a conclusion to what has happened.
“the meaning of the book’s title is revealed in the epilogue”
A final or concluding act or event.
What an appropriate name for the third and final part of our annual Migration Tales series. In the Prologue and Interlude chapters, we covered the wildebeest herds moving north towards the river and ultimately enduring the dangers of the Mara River, as the famous crossing took place. Heavy rains earlier in the year postponed the start by several weeks; however, once it started, the show was magnificent. This leads us to the epilogue, the final tale. If you really think about it though, there really isn’t an end to the migration is there? Each month, even during the rainy season, there is still something happening throughout the year.
In fact, the months of October and November remain a favorite for me as it’s still a relatively well-kept secret. As we near the end of the year, the herd is at the Sand River resetting the cycle as they move south through Lobo towards the central Serengeti. As we did in parts 1 and 2, this week’s video is a collection of footage from guides and friends in the field in Lobo and further south, tracking herd movements and other activity.
Enjoy and safari njema.
