By Herbert Byaruhanga – This bird was our bird of the day. According to the Birdlife International distribution map, the White-bellied Canary (Crithagra dorsostriata) enters Uganda slightly.
The bird of the day
The field guidebook Birds of East Africa shows also tells us the same message. Its not a common bird. Crammy Uganda Wanyama told us that he was seeing it for the 3rd time, while I was seeing it for the second time.
White Bellied Canary
From Kumi to Moroto
Although the journey was longer than expected we were able to make some stops on the way and we were able to register a few species.
We started at 9:30am for a journey of 8 hours. By 7:30pm we checked in at Kara-Tunga, Karamoja Safari Camp. Excellent reception. Superb Coffee.
Great trip to the beautiful top of Mt Kadam with very experienced, friendly and knowledgable guides from Kara Tunga. Thorough pre-trip advice and planning, expertly executed.
After being and travelling in Uganda for a while, I can say that the 4 Days Karamoja Safari Tour has been my most beautiful and impressive experience I have done here (and probably in my life).
Watch the award winning documentary “Ateker” about reuniting people across borders in South Sudan, Karamoja Uganda, Turkana Kenya and Ethiopia. The documentary makers aim at fostering peace, preserving our cultural heritage and promoting cross-border tourism.
