Lake Nakuru is a shallow alkaline lake on the edges of Nakuru
town and lies a distance of 160 kilometers from Nairobi. The
lake is world famous as home to millions of flamingoes. The
number of flamingoes depends on the water level which determines
the quantity of algae on which the birds feed. Flamingoes are
known to migrate to other Rift Valley lakes whenever the water
level is low. The National Park surrounds the lake and was
gazetted to protect the colony of flamingoes as well as provide
sanctuary for endangered species such as the rhino. There are
