In search of Kenya's endemic birds

Hey! Are you looking for a good place to see the charismatic Sharpe's longclaw, a bird that every birder visiting Kenya would like to see (and often do not...)

Well, read what Kenyan journalist Rupi Mangat wrote after joining us on our recent survey to the Mau Narok grasslands - these are most likely the most important remaining stornghold for this very rare bird, and a very good place to see it!

A visit to the Taita Hills

Hello all!

Kenyan journalist Rupi Mangat joined us in our recent field trip to the Taita hills, where we are fighting to save the Taita apalis, a bird whose range is smaller than New York's Central Park and whose entire population is less than 150 pairs!

Rupi wrote an article for the East African Magazine, you can read it here
