Bird and breakfast accommodation is now available in Kanyanchu, a few minutes from the park gate. It’s perfect for people who plan to go chimping and then enjoy the birds. It’s an easy half an hour’s walk through the village to Bigodi Swamp as well. Just drop me an email for more info.

The birds in Uganda are incredible – 1,066 species discovered so far… to give you an idea of the difference between UK and Uganda, the UK has one type of kingfisher; Uganda has seven types! I love birds 🙂
