Birding
Uganda has long been known as a birding Mecca, drawing birders from all over the world to witness rare species like the shoebill stork and Green-breasted pitta. While Uganda as a whole has over a thousand different bird species, Murchison alone has over 450!
The park’s tremendously diversified topography supports an incredible variety of species. Over the course of a few days, birdwatchers can see a wide range of birds, from herons, ducks, terns, and cormorants that thrive in the Nile and its adjacent deltas to bustards and cranes that graze the broad plains, Murchison has it all!
