Uganda's endowment of birds varies from place to place, but rich in variety and species. In fact Uganda is ranked first in the world as an inhabitant of the largest number of rare bird species.
Pairs of saddle-billed stork are sometimes seen in the Africa. Although widely distributed, they need large territories in which to feed and breed and their wetland habitats are shrinking elsewhere due to drainage for agriculture. This huge black and white bird has a large red and black bill with a yellow "saddle" across its base. Males and females can be distinguished by their eyes - those of the females are yellow, while those of the male are brown.
