Rwanda, Day 6. Kigali

We Left Akagera early enough to spend a productive day at the Nyandungu Eco-Park in Kigali. Not far from the airport, they have preserved and reclaimed some wetlands that have a great variety of bird life, very close to the bustle of Kigali. The header image is of a Double-toothed Barbet.

This is a male Red-billed Firefinch, just a few centimetres long,
