Tanzania is one of the finest bird-watching destinations in Africa, with 1140 species including 200 migrants and 74 marine birds present.
Tanzanian avian safaris are best in the rain for migrants and residents in breeding plumage. The preeminent birding locations include Arusha National Park, with 400 birds in a diversity of habitats contained in a small area. You may observe on a white-faced whistling duck, with its whistling three-note lament, or a dusky flycatcher. Tawny eagles and buzzards hover above Ngurdoto Crater, whilst the Momella Lakes is the place for water birds and waders.
Lake Manyara National Park offers pink flamingos, pelicans, storks, cormorants, hornbills, and many more with over 400 recorded species. Greater and lesser flamingos are also found in Ngorongoro Crater and millions mass on their breeding ground at Lake Natron. East Africa is full of prime birding locations, whether you are content with the occasional sighting from your vehicle or prefer to set off on a twitching mission.
Select your best pair of binoculars, pack your zoom lens, and meet with a guide who shares your passion. Whether on foot or in a 4×4, the pace slows on a birding safari and opens up a world of details. Find yourself parked quietly beside a popular waterhole to watch who comes and goes or crouched in the undergrowth waiting for that telling flutter of movement.
Ruaha National Park and Selous Game Reserve in southern Tanzania are both ideal locations for spotting across-section of East African birds and Southern African migrants.
In the depths of Rubondo Island’s forests or Ngorongoro’s montane woodlands, keen birders can spot hundreds of different species.
With the wide range of habitats just waiting to be explored on an East African safari holiday, avid birders must be prepared for every terrain and climate.
Dusty plains, humid forests, muddy paths, and long hikes may stand between you and the final bird on your checklist. Pack light and comfortable clothing with warm and waterproof options. Neutral colors are best for blending in, while sturdy hiking boots will never go amiss when clambering over rocks and fallen trees to spot that rare winged beauty.
