Uganda; the “Pearl of Africa” is regarded as Africa’s best birding destination for birders interested in birding safaris Uganda and other nature fanatics.

Uganda is blessed with over 1,031 confirmed bird species distributed allover Uganda.

This figure represents more than half the bird species that can be found in the whole of Africa.

Even with over 1000 species of birds, very few Ugandans are aware of this rich diversity of birds present in this country.

For this reason, Nature Uganda would like to improve this awareness through the Uganda big birding day and also to promote avi-conservation and avitourism.

Avitourism is a recreational activity done by tourists and is commonly known as bird watching. This safari activity is part of ecotourism which contributes significantly to conservation and as well as economic growth of Uganda.

Nature Uganda is doing all it takes to promote avitourism in Uganda mainly by tourists and very few locals.

For this reason, we hope that the Uganda big birding day will create more awareness and thus improve on local tourism.
