Langata Nature Centre, Nairobi, Kenya
Klaas’ Cuckoo
All told, I spent the entire day in the sanctuary (much to the amazement of the staff when I finally emerged after seven hours), wandering around the trails and sitting out the hottest part of the day in the shade in the forest. There are drinks and some basic hot foods at the Giraffe Centre, but if you take some water in there’s really no need to come out at all.
If I’d had access to a car, or had been birding with someone else, I imagine I’d have only spent a few hours here before hurrying on to the next stop - probably the Nairobi National Park - but I’d have missed out on the peace and quiet of the place and not had the kind of views I had of some usually less visible species… |
