  • Summary

  • This episode is recorded along a seasonal river bed that runs along the OloSirikon valley when it rains.

    The seasonal river has receded after the short January rains. It is now a stream flowing before it eventually dries up under the intense February sun.

    The vegetation has sprung up and the greenery is exhilarating. The air is fresh in the countryside. The Kajiado County grazing lands teem with healthy livestock, and the migratory corridors are alive with wildlife.

    The most cheerful are the birds though. They brought their song to the riverine woodlot, and I sat down to record these mid-morning melodies. The soft mid-day bird choruses induced an ambiance of serenity to massage a sense of wellness.

    The acacia tree branches swayed in the wind in sync with the gentle sound of water running over stones. This stream joins Mbagathi river a few clicks downstream before entering Athi River; all the way to the Indian Ocean.

    As I took this break in nature, I knew I was breathing fresh air, embellished with doses of beautiful nature sounds.

    Enjoy the show.
