One of the rarest birds in the world, with a very low population for many reasons. Locals hunt them down claiming they’re a bad omen but the bird which usually lays about three eggs but only one gets to adulthood, the healthier first-born which either out competes its siblings for food or kills them. This is a flying giant that can grow up to 5 feet and for bird enthusiasts, watching it is like catching a shooting star, but slow enough for you to fully see it. You can easily catch it at the Mabamba Swamp not very far from Entebbe airport and enjoy the added local canoe experience that glides you to the swamp.
