A young herdsmen, Ole Mpoke, watches over cattle in a temporary shed in Loita Forest.

Ole Mpoke comes from the plains of Loita, in an area called Narosura.

In the plains further away from the forest, like Narosura, drought is being felt more adversely. Ole Mpoke has migrated temporarily to this area with his father's cattle to seek refuge, and greener pasture.

But he says to me that he has to walk the cattle much further than he used to, in the depths of the forest, to find suitable pasture this time.
