Our little piece of paradise!

We have been looking forward to moving into our new home for ages now as my wife has worked tirelessly to build us our home. We have been welcomed into the Mabale communal lands and have a lovely plot of land. We, unlike our neighbours, have decided to leave the forest as a forest and only have a small field to grow some food. We have an abundance of wild fruit and this attracts a huge diversity of birds. We moved in about 10 days ago and it is paradise.

These following images were taken within 10min at our birdbath.
Yellow-bellied Greenbul

Black-headed Oriole

Red-winged starling

Shaft-tailed Whydah, Cut-throat Finch






On our first evening there we were delighted to see five Grey-headed Parrots and a couple of days ago my wife saw an African Green Pigeon.

We will keep you up to date as the list increases.
