Hi,

I spent a day birding in the AFEW Nature Sanctuary (part of the Langata Giraffe Sanctuary) near Nairobi last month.
I finally got a report online with some (I hope) good photos including White-starred Robin, Singing Cisticola, Mountain Wagtail, Variable Sunbird, White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher, Klaas' Cuckoo and a bunch of others. Nothing really rare but a good day nonetheless.

The report is at http://www.charliesbirdblog.com/~charlie/NBO24april05/NBO24apr05.html

Cheers.

Charlie, I enjoyed looking at your above website. It brought back memories of our February 2004 Trip to Kenya. Thanks!

Those are extraordinary photos, especially considering they are forest birds.

Very intresting report and stunning photos, you didnt meet anyone called Wally at your visit in the Sanctuary?

Wally is my dad, he works at the Sanctuary and often takes tourists out for a guiding or birding tour in these sorroundings.
