Instagram post 2192265038646379170_22210946701 African Blue Flycatcher, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda. Quite a brilliant little bird, and easy to find in #uganda #africanbirdingexpo2019 #africanbirdingexpo #africanblueflycatcher #birdstagram #birdsofinstagram #birds #pearlofafrica
Instagram post 2191958646467285300_22210946701 Dusky Tit in Kibale National Park, Uganda. This is one awesome chickadee! #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019 #duskytit #birdstagram #birdsofinstagram #uganda #birds #pearlofafrica #kibalenationalpark
Instagram post 2190475165945831183_22210946701 A Mountain Gorilla gnaws on a tree in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. They chew on these trees for fiber and nutrition. Being so close to such magnificent creatures was mind-blowing. #mountaingorilla #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019
Instagram post 2187203693307619545_22210946701 Tawny Eagles are massive beasts. This one was at Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda. #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019 #murchisonfallsnationalpark #birds #birdstagram #tawnyeagle #birdsofinstagram #uganda #raptors #eagles #birdsofprey
Instagram post 2186857059482773821_22210946701 Short-toed Snake-Eagle, Murchison Falls National Park. This bird isn’t very common in Uganda and we were pleased to find one perched cooperatively in good light. Though it’s called a snake-eagle because of its eating habits it does kind of resemble a snake. #birds #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019 #raptors #birdsofprey #shorttoedsnakeeagle #birdstagram #birdsofinstagram
Instagram post 2185854619409080144_22210946701 This Gray Kestrel in Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda, though painted from a limited palette, is quite striking, especially when it stays sitting when you park next to it in your safari van. #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019 #kestrel #digiscoping #graykestrel #birdsofinstagram #birdsofprey #uganda #falcons #birds
Instagram post 2185363931047212938_22210946701 Gray-headed Kingfisher, one of Uganda’s many gorgeous kingfishers, with insect prey in Murchison Falls National Park. Unlike the kingfishers in the Americas which almost always do what their name says, many African kingfishers subsist on bugs, lizards, and other small, non-aquatic prey. #uganda #grayheadedkingfisher #africanbirdingexpo #africanbirdingexpo2019 #birds #birdsofinstagram #birdstagram #digiscoping
Instagram post 2185113197433200953_22210946701 Black-headed Goneleks deserve a better name as they are astoundingly beautiful birds. Resourceful too, as this one was picking dead bugs out of car grills at the Chili Pepper Rest Camp near the Nile ferry in Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda. #blackheadedgonolek #birds #birdstagram #birdsofinstagram #uganda #africanbirdingexpo2019 #africanbirdingexpo #nature #naturephotography #digiscoping
