The bird of the day
The field guidebook Birds of East Africa shows also tells us the same message. Its not a common bird. Crammy Uganda Wanyama told us that he was seeing it for the 3rd time, while I was seeing it for the second time.
White Bellied Canary
From Kumi to Moroto
Although the journey was longer than expected we were able to make some stops on the way and we were able to register a few species.
We started at 9:30am for a journey of 8 hours. By 7:30pm we checked in at Kara-Tunga, Karamoja Safari Camp. Excellent reception. Superb Coffee.
We are glad to have concluded a 2 days training under Uganda Safari Guides Association (USAGA) on mechanisms to prevent, detect and respond to violence against women (VAW) and Gender Based Violence (GBV) in the workplace.
A simply unforgettable, perfect and authentic Karamoja Boda Boda tour – We were looking for a Tour Operator to help us meet the local tribes for a few days, in the most authentic way, with our tent.
Granite Rock ‘Ruoth’ in Abim offers Uganda’s best Climbing – The Ruth rock nicknamed ‘Chief’, is called one of Uganda’s most impressive rock features with some of the best climbing found in Uganda. Though climbed by only a few frontiers with the first found record in 1957.
Near Moroto we privately had a traditional Karamojong village tour with a local guide. Normally, I don’t like village tours, but this was better than expected and pure.
