Semuliki National Park

Bundibugyo, Uganda

An eastern extension of the Congo's Ituri rainforest, and the reason Semuliki's bird list reads unlike anywhere else in East Africa — roughly 440 species, many of them Central African specials found in no other Ugandan park. The Sempaya hot springs vent steam through the forest floor hot enough to boil an egg, which the guides duly demonstrate.

    For a serious birder this is the prize — Congo species you simply cannot get elsewhere in the region.

    Hot springs are genuinely startling. They boiled our eggs in the vent in about ten minutes.

    Hot, humid, wonderfully wild. Go with a guide who knows the calls.
