Easter weekend activities part two – Abuko Nature Reserve

At 9am Helen, Nicola, Joe, Abdou, Helen L and I met at Westfield and caught a van destined for Brikama to Abuko Nature Reserve. We’d tried to get an early start to see more animals before it heated up, but 9am was the best we could do!

Room for one more? The van to Brikama.

The reserve was really beautiful with some great trees, and loads of vines and creepers hanging down from the canopy. 

It was really nice to take a walk in some different scenery.

While walking we saw a few red colobus monkeys and lizards, oh and an antelope ran across our path very quickly, but not much else. Mostly it was just nice to walk through the trees.

Joe had bought his binoculars and bird book but the only birds we saw were vultures... loads of them!
