Story Worth Telling

The Singing Wells of Samburu

As described in detail in the Sera Conservancy section: warriors singing their family's specific song as they pass water up from deep wells in the dry riverbed; cattle recognising their family's song and moving toward it; elephants arriving after the cattle depart. One of Africa's most ancient living cultural traditions, available in the dry season at the Sera Conservancy's Kisima Hamsini and at other northern Kenya sites. Timing: The Singing Wells are active during the dry season when the rivers run dry — approximately July through October and January through February.
