Description
Ethiopia is home to more than 800 bird species. In this trip, you will spot many of these birds including more than 20 endemics.
Our two weeks trip starts from the capital, Addis Ababa, spotting the endemic Wattled Ibis. In Addis Ababa, thick-billed raven, White-collared Pigeon, the beautiful Abyssinian Longclaw, and more can also be seen. 211 km from Addis is Awash National Park. The park preserves Beisa oryx, Kudu, Soemmerring's gazelle, Swayne’s hartebeest, Olive and hamadryas baboons, colobus and grivet monkeys, and Dik-dik. This trip will also take us to the hot springs of Doho. We will encounter the endemic birds such as Blue-winged Goose, Spot-breasted lapwing, Yellow-fronted parrot, Abyssinian longclaw, Abyssinian catbird, and Black-headed siskin. Ethiopian Wolf, Mountain Nyala, Bale Monkey, Menelik’s Bushbuck, and Starck’s Hare can also be seen in the Bale Mountains. The enigmatic Stresemann’s bush crow and the glistening White-tailed swallow are seen in Yabello Wildlife Sanctuary. Birding at the Ethiopian Great Rift Valley lakes is also part of this package.
