Beauty outside is calling 🥰📸


Hello my Hive friends...
Hope you are keeping well! This is another beautiful day spent outside home with the visitor Lyndsay from USA.

Today she brought a suggestion of having a walk in the morning since it was her free day and she asked for the recommendations, I absolutely forwarded the nature walk in the national park of Mgahinga. In here, it's a beautiful place with drizzling winds, lovely volcano sceneries and abundant bird species. She was eager to do it since it was her first time to come to Uganda after the gorilla 🦍 trek. The weather ☁️ was so bright and we had to pull off our jackets while on the walk.

It took us about thirty five minutes to reach the viewing platform where one sees a quarter of the park 🏞️. While on the way, we saw beautiful multicolored birds and the best favorite was the pin tailed Whydah (male) caught mating in the grasslands of the mountain 🏔️ and she spotted a Jackson's chameleon (female) also nearby.

This amused Lyndsay and took many photos of the incident 😊. While we had made a half of the walk, we met the Batwa (pygmies) and started entertaining us with their traditional dances and talks!! This immediately shifted Lyndsay from continuing with the planned journey to finish the nature walk😂. She had to request to have the Batwa experience also and here they demonstrate how they used to live in the forests by hunting and making local fire out of wooden sticks. They allowed us and the best part was making the fire since by then before 1991, the matchboxes were not there. I also participated in the process as she was taking me photos unknowingly 😂. This was a nice moment with these people formally known as the Batwa (people of the forest).

After this experience , our ranger guide took us to the playing gem, happily I first jumped on the swing and she followed me😂. For anyone travelling to Uganda 🇺🇬 shouldn't miss out these experiences after the gorilla tracking.
