Bird watching enthusiasts find unmatched rewards in the bountiful landscapes of Kenya. For those dedicated to the art of birdwatching, a meticulously planned two-week itinerary often culminates in an impressive trip list, showcasing between 350 to 400 bird species. This remarkable figure positions Kenya among the most rewarding birdwatching destinations globally, rivaling the diversity found anywhere on Earth.
Kenya proudly holds a position of distinction as one of just 15 countries globally where over 1,000 bird species have been meticulously documented. It ranks third in Africa for avian diversity, following only the Democratic Republic of Congo and Tanzania. This impressive list encompasses an array of avian wonders, including the world’s two largest birds – the common and Somali ostrich (now recognized as separate species), as well as the largest flying creature, the Kori bustard. Among the feathered treasures, you’ll also encounter a captivating array of raptors and a mesmerizing spectrum of colorful bee-eaters, turacos, parrots, rollers, and passerines.
