Live Webcams in Tsavo

Tsavo, the largest wilderness in Kenya, sprawls across the country between Nairobi and the coast, and the live webcams in Tsavo show its most surprising feature: spring-fed pools beside the camps of the west of the park, where the water pulls elephants, buffalo and the birdlife out of the dry scrub, with Kilimanjaro on the skyline on clear mornings. Tsavo keeps East Africa Time, UTC+3, with no daylight saving, so dawn falls around 03:30 UTC and the evening drink around 15:00 UTC. The springs are what make Tsavo West green: at Mzima, some 220 million litres a day well up through the lava from the Chyulu Hills, clear enough to watch the hippos underwater. The lions here are the ones that stopped the railway in 1898. January to March and July to October are the dry seasons to watch.
