Birding close to Nairobi (1 Viewer)

[Shabanak]

Hello fellow birders,

I am in Kenya for a business trip in about 2 weeks time. Is there by chance anyone here who would like to go birding on the weekend 29th and/or 30th of June?
Or if not does anyone have tips on birding spots in and around of Nairobi?
Thank you.

3 days birding around Nairobi

Hi I will have about three days free after a workshop in Nairobi in early June. I would like to visit a few sites fairly close to Nairobi to see as many species as possible, with a focus on forest and woodland species and those not found in South Africa. I am on a tight budget and would be happy...

Did Kenya last year, Nairobi National Park was our first full day and we managed over 100 species in 8 hours: https://ebird.org/checklist/S137691425

If you want to do more forest/on-foot birding, then Ngong Forest Sanctuary might be a good site to check out: https://ebird.org/checklist/S137415137

Nairobi National Park was good in the very early 1960's too! Sadly before I was a birder!
