Uganda and Kenya Scenics 3-18 Jan 2009
Bottom left is another papyrus swamp along the road somewhere away from Mabamba Bay.
This was the Finfoot lake.
I gave up on any kind of cogent organization of these photos, so here goes, by row:
1: Bwindi Impenetrable Forest signs.
2+3: The actual forest, we hiked up and over that tallest hill. Took us 5
hours to reach the gorillas.
4: The trail we followed, until it gave out to just forest on right.
5: A view from the hill, and a mountain stream.
6: Another stream.
7: Another stream, and another view.
8: More trailless areas we trekked through.
9: Our motley group, and one of the guards.
10: You can clearly see the edge of the protected forest on the left, and
then one of the trails we birded the enxt day.
11: The group, and some coffee plants.
12: More coffee, one of Uganda's leading exports, a park sign, and a river
from the road.
I had my best day with odonates at this river crossing.
Top row is during the chimp trek, bottom row is habitat along the edge of Bigodi Swamp near our camp.
