点评:Claudien organised an excellent day of birding for me at very short notice. I appreciated being collected and dropped off at my hotel in Kigali.
The morning was spent walking the trails at Nyandungu Eco-Park with guide Sylvere. The birds were active with a total count of 52 species. My highlights were Spot-flanked and Double-toothed Barbets, the latter with a nest. A pair of White-collared Olivebacks represented a lifer for me.
We then moved on to Umusambi Village for a few hours with driver Alex. Our luck was in as a group of Grey Crowned Cranes were feeding right next to the viewing platform. Fantastic photographic opportunity!
Sylvere's birding knowledge and spotting skills were outstanding and he certainly knows his bird calls. He was very professional and helpful and is highly recommended.
I can always count on Claudien to arrange a memorable birding experience. He wasn't available himself on the day but hopefully next time. Thank you!

上午,我和向导西尔维尔一起在尼亚东古生态公园的步道上漫步。鸟类非常活跃,一共记录到52种。我最喜欢的是斑胁拟啄木鸟和双齿拟啄木鸟,后者还筑了巢。一对白领橄榄背啄木鸟对我来说是第一次见到。
之后,我们和司机亚历克斯一起前往乌穆桑比村,在那里待了几个小时。我们运气很好,一群灰冠鹤正在观景台旁觅食。真是绝佳的拍照机会!
西尔维尔的观鸟知识和观察技巧非常出色,他对各种鸟的叫声也了如指掌。他非常专业,乐于助人,我强烈推荐他。
我总是可以信赖克劳迪恩,他总能安排一次难忘的观鸟体验。他那天没空,但希望下次有机会。谢谢!
