Our first stop at Queen Elizabeth National Park is always Irungu Forest Lodge, where we have lunch. We always get there early with enough time to bird around the lodge while waiting for lunch to be served. This Red-chested Sunbird was one of many different species we saw there. Brilliant bird! The Scarlet-chested is generally found around water, lakes and marshes, and we were only a mile or so from the Kazinga Channel. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent.
