This nation includes <strong>over 1.000 species of birds<\/strong>, 150 of which can be considered endemic. This is one of the most interesting touristic choices, if you love to go <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2021\/01\/18\/birdwatching-safari-how-and-where-to-do-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>birdwatching<\/strong><\/a>. Besides, you can be sure you will admire the animals from a close point of view. The territory\u00a0 in fact offers many &#8220;<strong>birds sanctuaries<\/strong>&#8221; where tourists can approach them in their safe habitat. Make sure you always follow your guides&#8217; advice, so to live the experience in the best way ever.<\/p>\n<h2>Uganda, funny storks and elegant cranes<\/h2>\n<p>It can be called <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2020\/08\/04\/uganda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Uganda<\/a>&#8216;s national animal, and it is funny like a cartoon. <strong>Its name is Shoebill Stork, though it looks more like a pelican.<\/strong>\u00a0 \u00a0It is usually grey, squat, with a funny shoe-shaped beak (or bill, hence the name) and lives in swamp lands since prehistoric age. This stork, in fact, is a living testimony of the dinosaurs era; it used to be a dinosaur bird itself, as its weird beak still tells. In <strong>Uganda<\/strong> it can be found everywhere &#8211; though <strong>mainly at <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2020\/08\/24\/queen-elizabeth-national-park-where-the-lions-climb-trees\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Queen Elizabeth National Park<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2020\/08\/17\/lake-mburo-national-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lake Mburo<\/a>, Semiliki Wildlife area and Mabamba Swamps.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Ugandese cranes are not just another kind of crane, they are wonderful visions. <strong>The Grey Crowned Cranes<\/strong> -which can be spotted in most birds sanctuaries of the nation &#8211; have bright colours and a long, grey neck. It ends in a small head crowned with thin golden feathers which make it a royal looking bird. This is the best experience a <strong>birdwatching safari in Uganda<\/strong> can give, so you should plan it if you are aiming to try this trip.<\/p>\n<h2>Not only storks and cranes<\/h2>\n<p>Besides these two incredible birds, <strong>in Uganda you can meet so many volatiles!<\/strong> Another beautiful vision, here, is the <strong>Long Crested Eagle<\/strong> which is considered a sacred bird, by local people. If you meet this eagle, in fact, you will be sure to marry the man or woman you love. In order to meet them, you should book a <strong>mountain safari<\/strong> because the eagles live over 2000 metres height, on bare untouched rocks. <strong>Safaris at Queen Elizabeth Park<\/strong> or <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2020\/08\/22\/murchison-falls-national-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Murchison Falls Park<\/strong><\/a> will let you admire another bird of prey: <strong>African Fish Eagle. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is much easier to admire <strong>the Marabou<\/strong>, a bird that has learnt how to live close to villages and towns &#8230; many people here consider it as a pet. They also call it &#8220;Charlie&#8221;, like a good old friend.\u00a0More birds to see, in <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/2020\/08\/04\/uganda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Uganda<\/strong><\/a>: <strong>common ostrich, fulvous whistling duck,<\/strong> crested guineafowl, red necked francolin,<strong> flamingos, blue turaco, dideric cuckoo, Senegal coucal<\/strong> and many others more.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15401\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15401\" style=\"width: 823px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15401 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/uganda-birds-01.jpg\" alt=\"uganda birds 01\" width=\"823\" height=\"593\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/uganda-birds-01.jpg 823w, https:\/\/blog.hoaexp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/uganda-birds-01-768x553.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 823px) 100vw, 823px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15401\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">safaris at birds sanctuaries<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>What to wear, what to bring<\/h2>\n<p>Most of the birds in <strong>Uganda<\/strong> live in swamp and wet places, or in rain forests.
