Trekking through the shaded trails, you’ll encounter vibrant forest species such as hornbills, turacos, narina trogons, paradise flycatchers, and forest raptors. Lunch is served in the forest rest area, followed by an afternoon canopy-viewing session for spotting high-perching species. Return to your lodge for a checklist review and relaxing evening.

Day 3: Day 3: Wetland Birding & Departure

Your final morning begins with a trip to a nearby wetland or riparian zone known for waders, herons, kingfishers, and bee-eaters.
