Biridng In Queen Elizabeth National Park

 CONSERVE LAKE MUNYANYANGE.
In Queen Elizabeth National Park there tourist enjoy the visiting  just so that they can have an opportunity to watch the different kinds of Uganda wildlife and again  the tourist  also love it while at  the salty lake in Lake Katwe to watch people as they mine different types of salt in their natural form. At the same time other tourist love it just to listen to the sound  and songs of birds round Lake Munyanyange which is located just a few meters away from Lake Katwe in Katwe-Kabatooro town council.
Birding expert Mr. Richardson Ouma and field guide who is a at Katwe Tourist Information Centre (Katic) mentioned that currently Bird watching has become an interest activities to many tourist who come to Uganda and at Lake Munyanyange, Tourist hearing sound of birds singing  that they some times imitate them.  There are so many migrate birds  from far places like  Canada, Tanzania, Kenya , plus so many other places and they settle at Lake Munyanyange and they include the likes of  White Browed Robbin Chats, Black Headed Gonoleks, Long Tailed Starlings, African Hoopoes, Winding, Zitting, Flamingos, Desert Cisticolas among so many others.Lake Munyanyange is the dead salty lake which was once used to mine salt from it. It is small and shallow Crater Lake which appears only in the wet season in the North East of Katwe town. It is therefore a home to so many birds and has the largest number of the lesser black-backed gulls, Larus fuscus. These birds can be referred to as Palearctic migrants because they usually are no the move in October and leave in April.  Ouma said that these birds love this lake because they find it safe since at some point in time then lake becomes a muddy ground and therefore the animals find it hard to go after the birds to feed on them
KATIC seeing all these beautiful birds all around difference places and nations, now he intends to fence off the lake so that the rest of the animals do not have access to the lake and this project will be monitored by Nature Uganda, an NGO whose representative they are still waiting upon so that they birds are not affected in the process.Martin Kikoni Muhindo, the Katwe-Kabatooro Town Council Clerk offered Shs5m from the council to help alleviate the environmental pressure in the two lakes. This comes after the September 2011partnership between urban authority and KATIC towards management of crater lakes in the region. He added that there are about 32 water bird species that have been identified at the lake while they were doing waterfowl counts of July 2010, a total of about 410 birds representing 11 species were confirmed.
