Lake Nakuru adventure, Lake Nakuru National Park, Lake Nakuru Expedition

Lake Nakuru National Park lies in the heart of Rift Valley. The Park was gazetted in 1967 as the first bird sanctuary in Africa. Lake Nakuru has been described as a "bird watchers' paradise", and is acknowledged to be the greatest ornithological spectacle on earth. Millions of flamingoes flock here throughout the year and transform the shores of the lake to a pink 'carpet' over 300,000 birds can be seen at one sighting. Besides the flamingoes, Lake Nakuru National Park provides habitat for over 400 bird species. Lake Nakuru National Park, which surrounds the Lake, was established to protect the colony of Flamingoes as well as to provide a sanctuary for such endangered species as the White Rhino and the Rothschild Giraffe. The animals have been placed behind an electrical fence for their safety and surveillance. The Park abounds with other wildlife, notably; Buffalos, Hippos, Giraffes, Zebras, Primates, and many species of Antelope.
