Southern Ewaso Ng'iro

The Southern Ewaso Ng'iro (Brown River) is a river in the Great Rift Valley in Kenya (Africa). It plays an important role in the ecology of Lake Natron, the main regular breeding site for near-threatened Lesser Flamingos.

Lake Natron

Lake Natron is a salt lake located in northern Tanzania, close to the Kenyan border, in the eastern branch of the East African Rift. The lake is fed by the Southern Ewaso Ng'iro River and also by mineral-rich hot springs. It is quite shallow, less than three meters (10 feet) deep, and varies in width depending on its water level, which changes due to high levels of evaporation, leaving concentrations of salt and other minerals, notably sodium carbonate.
