Spotting typical West African birds
A colourful environment calls for colourful birds. Senegal has a particularly rich variety of birds in all shapes and sizes.
The area of Senegal around Abéné is the real bird watcher's paradise.

You can learn a lot about the typical birds of West Africa when you go on a guided tour with the local birdexpert. For birders this is a great opportunity to accompany this birdexpert because he is one of the most famous bird experts in Senegal. He has also worked with the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture. He brings you to the most exquisite spots of the south of Senegal and can really tell you anything and everything about every bird.Pearl of Casamance
