Birding Safaris

Being a closed in country, Uganda falls at the confluence of a number of Africa’s centers of endemism or biomes in Central Africa, each with characteristic birdfauna. From the mouth of Lake Albert to the snow-capped Rwenzori ranges, the montane forests, volcanoes, huge marsh areas to the semi-arid plains of Karamoja, Uganda is an equatorial country of startling discrepancy that has special bird species to offer to you make a ‘Birding Journey to Uganda’.

In paraphrasing Nigel Wheatley’s  Where to Watch Birds in Africa (1995) he noted that "In terms of its size, Uganda is the richest country for birds in Africa. " And this immense volume and diversity occurs miraculously in a space which keen birders can cover in a relatively short visit.  Your Birding Journey(s) in Uganda is not just a vacation but looking forward to fulfilling your birding dream from the genesis of its formation and among the bird spp offered, we shall encounter many of the following special species some of which are Globally Threatened, Endemic and Near Endemic, forest / Papyrus / Woodland Rarities and Vulnerable bird Species.
