Bigodi Swamp is a bird-watching must do and even if you are not a
bird watcher, it’s a recommended trip to support the conservation
of the swamp and a nice walk through a unique landscape. It’s an
easy morning excursion and it seems like there is a burgeoning
industry of guides that can take you on the walk. Our hotel arranged
for someone to meet us at the main gate at 745am and we had a very
productive bird walk finishing up at around 11am. The walk
criss-crossed through community agriculture land, boardwalks across
flooded swamps, and forest edge. It was a nice sampling of the
habitat and it was a good demonstration of community conservation.
Although the swamp was surrounded by village land and development,
the habitat was well conserved with an astonishing variety of birds
that were easy to view. As most people will come to the area for
chimp trekking, I would say that this walk could pose as an excellent
warm up!
