Lake natron
Early departure to Lake Natron. The lake is the only regular breeding area in East Africa for the 2.5 million lesser flamingos, whose status of results from their dependence on this one location. When salinity increases, so do cyanobacteria, and the lake can also support more nests. These flamingoes, the single large flock in East Africa, gather along nearby saline lakes to feed on Spirulina. Lake Natron is a safe breeding location because it's caustic environment is a barrier against predators trying to reach their nests on seasonally forming evaporite islands. Greater flamingoes also breed on the mud flats.

Serengeti National Park
Drive from Lake Natron to Serengeti National Park, entering the park at Klein's gate, our fist game drive in the northern part of Serengeti named Lobo area after the gate. Lobo is a wonderful area but like no expert mentioned it should be combined with Seronera if at all possible, Lobo on its own might not show you everything - this said, if you are staying at Mbuzi Mawe then you are kind of in-between Seronera and Lobo and you would have access to both areas, if you are further north then Seronera is a little far to get to.
Lobo has wonderful permanent resident animals because of good permanent springs and also is the catchment area for the Grumeti River. This means that you have good cats (lion and leopard). Drive the Lobo loop road early in the morning where you might find lion close to the road and there are two sets of hills to the south of the airstrip where you should look out for leopard.

The endless grassy plains are the richest grazing grounds on the continent and therefore home to the largest herds and the highest concentrations of predators on the planet, focus solely on the Serengeti Migration would be to do the Serengeti National Park a grave injustice, Even taking the Great Migration out of the equation.
