On Wednesday morning we drove through Ishasha in the southern part of Queen Elizabeth National park, looking for the famed tree climbing lions. Despite our driver Francis' best efforts and circling every ficus tree and scanning every thicket, we were out of luck.
However we did see some mongooses, buffalo, topi, baboons, red tailed monkeys and an elephant.
The birdlife was very abundant and we saw the following species:
White browed coucal
Long crested eagle
Red necked spurfowl
Yellow necked longclaw
Not pictured are
Palm nut vulture, Sooty chat, Black headed gonolek with its call of whee-oo, Grey backed bush shrike, Swallows, Ruppells starling.
