GORILLAS & SHOEBILLS - HAS TO BE UGANDA - PART 1 MABAMBA SWAMP
Well we are just back from a fabulous 20 days in the pearl of Africa, Uganda. Here goes the first of a long line of posts but with nearly 2000 images taken between us its hard to know what to cut out - I have put the images down in the order they were taken so you can follow our route. The trip was organised very differently from any of our previous travels in as much as we went with two friends Neil Drinkall and Craig Nimick and we used a tour company to make all arrangements. The Company was http://www.birduganda.com/ and our guide was Emmy Gongo aka Emmymomela and we would highly recommend them. So here goes with the first photo taken which ironically shows one of the over-riding images of Uganda -not a bird but the humble banana of which you will see many more.
