Tanzania

Thanks you for looking at my photos from northern Tanzania (Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Gibb's Farm). I made two trips to the same locations: one in 2016, the other in 2017. The trip in 2016 followed a relatively normal rainy season. Although the trip in 2017 followed a drought, we experienced a bit more rain in 2017 than in 2016.

The differences in weather had a noticeable effect on the distribution of wildlife. Some animals seen regularly in 2017 were seen less frequently or not at all in 2016 and vice versa. For example, in 2017 zebras were plentiful in Tarangire, but we saw none in 2016. On the other hand, lions seemed to be more abundant in Ngorongoro Conservation Area in 2016 then they were in 2017.
