Mabamba Swamp Shoebill Birdwatching

With almost 1100 bird species in Mabamba Swamp, Uganda is a dream destination for watchers of these beautiful creatures. The behaviors, flight patterns, calls and interactions of Uganda’s birds are completely fascinating from the bee-eaters that make their homes in the lime cliffs by the Nile at Murchison to the pre-historic shoebill commonly among the Mabamba swamps, the giant, scavenging Maribu storks and tiny yellow weaver birds to the twinkling blues of a host of starlings the birds alone are worth coming to Uganda for.
