Giant Forest Hog Queen Elizabeth National Park.Two small family parties seen well along the Kazinga Channel during our afternoon cruise which has to rate as one of the best fresh water wildlife cruises I've been on.
Cape Buffalo herd Queen Elizabeth National Park along the shores of the Kazinga Channel. Egyptian Geese n the foreground.
Cape Buffalo Queen Elizabeth National Park along the shores of the Kazinga Channel. If looks could kill. Don't mess with Buffalo.
Hippopotamus. Common in Queen Elizabeth National Park in the Kazinga Channel.
In Uganda Giraffe are only found at Murchison Falls National Park where they are easily found
Was this massive silver back male Mountain Gorilla the highlight of the trip? A good half day was spent out in the forested mountains around Bwindi Impenetrable Forest where good views of a family party of Gorillas were seen well which included a number of playful youngsters.
