So it's been a month since I arrived in Uganda and a few days off were warranted, though honestly not planned. As Christmas draws nearer we'll have some down time as NGOs close for the holiday season.
That said, I was happy to have yesterday and today as rest days. Yesterday, we spent the day in Entebbe at the Botanical Gardens (which is really an arboretum) and at the Wildlife Education Centre (a rehab centre for rescued wildlife - not quite a zoo, but almost)
Much to my delight, both sites had an abundance of birds and below are a few of them. The first one, however, the Shoebill Stork, was in captivity, the others just here and there. I've posted them in order of size for your viewing pleasure.
Tomorrow, we travel north to Soroti and then on to Pader town on Saturday. Get out those maps!! Stay tuned...
