Finally looks like Spearboy might have a friend! Kutiti and Spearboy, awesome! Such great news that Spearboy seems to have a partner!! 
Rekero Boy Ron2 was seen hanging in Siana Conservancy. Hes been mating and hanging with lionesses. He looks great, full belly and in great shape! Unfortunately no sign of Green Eyes or Cesar2.

As far as I know, it have not already been the territory of Salas males, they just have heard the 4 Sankai young boys caught the hyenas and they came to check the source of it. So they chased and caught them in the surrounding area. Btw, Salas males have fairly quite busy period in these days/weeks, they needed to chase out 4/5 Bilashakas and then these young boys, too - after their relative quiet and calm period in the last 1-2 years since they took over the Rekero and Topi Plains prides, their tasks have increased recently. 
Everybody's favorite bad boy rebel, Jesse. Says it was filmed in August, and that he is in an area that is full of coalitions, most of whom are his sons and grandsons, but that they do not know who he is. He's been a slick operator to this point, keeping himself out of harm's way.
These videos brought me to wonder, are there 2 Marsh Prides, a Marsh Pride in the Mara and the Marsh Pride that was controlled by Sekekama? The videos from this channel really provide some detailed information, which isn't as common as we all know. The second video even discusses a missing lioness, Kabibi, who was the last daughter of Bibi, the mother of the Notches. Said she had been missing for 6 months before the second video was filmed, making it sometime around March of 2021.

Yup you got it, there are 2 famous Marsh prides. 1 that has territory in the Mara Reserve and into Mara North Conservancy and sired Notches famous 5 boys Long, N2, Cesare, Ron, and Grimace. The other famous Marsh pride is in Savuti, Botswana. Sekekama and Torn Nose were dominant over this Pride and was featured in a documentary on TV.
New footages to Blackie2 from these days. He is doing well and added as a novelty he also started to roar and mark his new territory around the Kisinja/Kissinger area what he demands for himself according to this. There are/were a few lionesses near him and 3 younger females on the other day (probably Mdogo's offsprings).
He is the male who have been already mentioned by BigLion39 as a nomad in the near of Jesse and some other nomads too and who could be a potential partner to these males. For example to Kaka, who is his half-brother from an another pride, but their fathers are same (most probably Blackie) from the infamous 4'km coalition. He was born in 2012 - so they are even in the same age with Kaka as i mentioned some days ago - along with Lipstick2 and their 3rd brother in the Rekero Breakaway Pride, but in the mid/summer of 2020, sadly he lost his brother Lipstick2 who was one of the most impressive and beautiful male with the largest mane in the entire Masai Mara...since then, he lives as a nomad
Even more interesting than usual sightings of the Topi pride and their rulers, the 3 Salas males, from Rob. Amazing to see as one of the lioness "was attacked" by one of their young offsprings playfully and then always grumpy Osapuk thought the game was serious and took a bite on the female. :)) While Olepolos is watching the events in the background with his dark mane (having the darkest of them) and Orkitok out of this sight but he also can be seen at 2:45 with Olepolos. Osapuk is the biggest of them with his bulkiest mane and it is said that he is been currently one of the biggest lion also in the entire Mara.

Btw this recording also shows that Lipstick2's mane how impressive was. (It was not for nothing that he was also my namesake.) :) But he had someone to inherit this beautiful and impressive appearance from...Here is a portrait of his father Lipstick Credits to Mathieu Pujol | Photographe  *This image is copyright of its original author
Here's Lipstick and Blackie brother, the 3rd 4KM brother, father of Maradadi. He was killed or disappeared as he stayed back with the Paradise Pride while his 2 brothers Lipstick and Blackie moved on and took over the Topi Plains Pride.
