Yes there are a lot of hippos…

in the Kasinga Channel in Queen Elizabeth National Park. We saw many schools and each school was way large! These hippopotamuses are actually kneeling on the bottom of the channel. They do not float! Just keeping their delicate hides out of the sun. 🙂 Sony Rx10iv at 207mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos.

Black-winged Stilt

Black-winged Stilt: Kazinga Channel, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda, August 2022 — Among the most common and widespread waders in East Africa, the Black-winged Stilt is somewhat of a mystery in Uganda. They are resident but there are more of them in August through April, and no one knows where the extra birds come from?? Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent.
