In contrast to the previous set, these are all of wetland species that are fairly widespread in Africa. Most people we talk to about Ethiopia don’t associate the country with wetlands but the Rift Valley lakes that we visited (Lakes Zwai, Langano, Awassa and Chelekleka) held thousands of birds and Chelekleka (the spelling varies!) was again particularly good with several thousand Common Cranes among the highlights.

We have another Avian Adventures tour to Ethiopia planned for later this year. Details are on the website.
