Uganda is on record for having more bird species per square kilometre than any other country in Africa. Uganda, roughly the same size as the United Kingdom, can boast a national list of 1008 species!
This figure stands for more than half the bird species that can be found in the entire Africa. The key to Uganda’s diversity is its variety of habitats:aridsemi-dessert,rich savannahs, lowland and montane rainforests, vast wetlands, volcanoes and an Afro-alpine zone.
Birders to Uganda are expected to find almost 550 avian species in one park alone - Uganda's Queen Elizabeth National Park is one. 350 species have been recorded in the Bwindi Impenetrable forest. These two parks alone are among the richest protected areas to be found anywhere on Earth. Accolades for Uganda's birding delights are rarely understated. "In terms of its size, Uganda is the richest country for birds in Africa.” And this immense volume and diversity occurs miraculously in a space which keen birders can cover in a relatively short visit.
