Birding

Uganda is a birdwatcher’s paradise, home to over 1,000 species ranging from dazzling warblers to the iconic shoebill. Each region offers rich avian diversity, with seasonal highlights: from May to September, migratory birds like the African Green Broadbill arrive; December to February brings vibrant wetland species such as Papyrus Gonoleks and kingfishers; and even the rainy months of April and November dazzle with resident birds in courtship, including the Great Blue and Ross’s Turacos. Whether in rainforest canopy or shimmering wetlands, every birding tour in Uganda is a vivid, living story of color, song, and discovery.
