The Cyanobacteria found in the lake not only makes the water
appear a greenish emerald color, it also attracts the large numbers of
flamingo. Volcanic soda-rich springs
flow into the lake and cause it to become more and more mineral-laiden and alkaline. Cyanobacteria thrives in this environment.
When the migration of flamingo reaches Lake Bogoria, it is
home to the largest population of flamingos on the planet. Greater Flamingos are present but it is the
incredible number of Lesser Flamingos that makes the migration so visually
spectacular.
Boat rides are possible on Lake Bogoria to get up-close with
the bird-life and hippo that inhabit these waters. There are a number of accommodation option in
Bogoria, including Lake Bogoria Spa Resort, The Baringo Country Club, and
Samatian Island Lodge.
To witness the largest migration of flamingo in the world
and a truly spectacular event, head to Lake Bogoria.
