Unbeatable
The highland escarpments form the most typical of Ethiopian habitats for birds and offer a number of species not found elsewhere in sub – Saharan Africa, like the Golden Eagle, Red – Billed Chough and Ruddy Shelduck; other endemics include Rouget’s Rail and the Spot breasted Lapwing. More than 50 species of birds inhabit the Simien Mountains National Park, including the impressive Bearded Vulture, or Lammergeyer, with its 10-foot (3m) wingspan. Bale Mountains National Park in the highlands is another popular birdwatchers’ paradise. The south of the country also affords superb birding opportunities with sought after endemics like the Prince Ruspoli’s Turaco, Degodi Larks and Stresemann’s Bush Crow. October to December is the best months to come and have a look on various species of birds.
