On July 18, 2025 Judy and I, and our granddaughter Ella, were on a wooden boat with an outboard motor, a navigator and a guide in the Mabamba Swamp on Lake Victoria in Uganda. We saw lots of birds and I was able to get photos of most of them. One that eluded me was an African marsh harrier which glided by us in front of the boat. A combination of not having my camera ready and the guide and Ella in front of me made it so that I was not able to get a photo.

I'm currently trying to document on my blog the different species of birds I've seen. I've blogged on most of them and have a goal to get it completed by the end of the year. Most of the birds I include on my list are ones that I have photographs of. However, this is one of about 22 I currently count that I don't have photos of. I've decided to do a short post on each one of those and include an illustration and a range map.
