Our Story
Everyone loves watching birds and listening to their songs. This page however targets bird-enthusiasts that watch birds either for hobby and/or professional publishing and classifying studies.
Bird watching needs the instincts, patience and manoeuvres of a hunter, as it is indeed hunting, where the camera replaces the rifle. More than 1,080 bird species are found in Uganda with one Edemic to Uganda only – The Fox’s Weaver, of which about 23 are endemic to the Albertine Rift Valley.
Uganda’s diverse habitats, highlands, lowland, forests, lakes, wetlands and river-line systems provide sites for wintering or passage birds. Uganda therefore is truly an ornithological paradise that never disappoints bird lovers that traveled thousands of miles just to see their beloved specimen. ________________________________________ The City Birder works with professional Bird guides, trained locally by the Uganda Safari guides Association and they are certified by the Uganda Tourism Board. Our guides are now in a position to lead bird-watchers to the specific birding sites and achieve successful sightings of most of the endemics. Although luck plays some role, the chances of successful viewing are increased by taking various factors such as location, climate, time of day and local vegetation changes into consideration.
We have guided quite number professional bird-watchers that have toured round the globe in search of endemic birds including IAN SINCLAIRE the Author of “Birds of Africa”. All of them have testified that their bird-watching experience in Uganda ranks among the best.
