Flamingoes and Other Avian Life
Lake Bogoria’s highly saline and alkaline waters, fueled by the region’s volcanic activity, are
home to thriving blue-green algae. This provides a rich food source for thousands of lesser
flamingoes, and sometimes greater flamingoes as well. With up to 135 species of birds in the
area, keen birdwatchers can also enjoy sightings of raptors like tawny eagles, buzzards,
goshawks, starling, hornbills, ibis, ostriches, and the majestic grey crowned crane.
Volcanic Springs and Geysers
The geothermal activity around Lake Bogoria is just as remarkable as the birdlife. The reserve
boasts more than 18 geysers, the most in Africa, with some shooting up to 5 meters (16 feet) in
a steaming display. Additionally, over 200 volcanic springs dot the landscape, where the water is
warm enough to boil eggs, offering visitors a truly unique experience.
