The Shoebill Stork one of the most sought after Bird in Uganda

What to find in Uganda and best birding spots?

The Great Blue Turacos one of Uganda's elegant species.

Though bird life is prolific in Uganda, a factor attributed to its diversity in natural habitats and breeding places for birds, such as semi and natural forests, swamps/wetlands, highlands, water-bodies and agricultural fields, Uganda would not be mixed up to be known as a birders heaven. Numerous spots here draw in tourists, for example, the 331 Square Kilometer Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, is home to over 350 species, this Park has additionally been granted a world legacy site by UNESCO. Semuliki with an impressive list of over 440 species with a great count of the Albertine Rift Endemics and forest species is a great birding site. Besides those, Queen Elizabeth National Park is classified as an Important Birding Area by Birding International with a tremendous count of more than 600 species making it the greatest of any East Africa’s park.

On the off chance that you don't name Kibale National Park after these National Parks, at that point, it will be uncalled for. The claim to fame of this park is that it has both ground and uneven woods. Other sites but not limited to, that deserve great mention are; Mabamba wetland, Budongo Forest, Bigodi wetland near Kibale Park, Lake Mburo National Park, Mabira Forest Reserve and Murchison Falls National Park.

Some of the species that you would definitely not want to miss out on a birding safari to Uganda are; the Shoebill Stork- a pre historic looking bird, the Great Blue Turaco, Shelley’s Crimson-wing, Grey Crowned Crane which is the national bird, Standard-winged Nightjar, Short-tailed Warbler, Doherty’s Bush Shrike, Bar-tailed Trogon and Black-breasted Barbet.

When to go to Uganda?
