Dispatch 5 - Kibale

Pineapple pie at midday; a walk in
Kibale forest; lots of animal sounds; views of fields of tea; flocks of birds over the
crater lake at sunset. Ian:
Memories of a forest walk: Whoops, shill wails and grunts of a large family of
chimpanzees; chasing Red Colobus monkeys; creeping up on the large apes feeding in the
trees and hiding from us in the undergrowth; blue dickers leaping through the bush unaware
of us as we stood motionless on the path, a stick caterpillar stuck to Joe’s shirt;
brilliant forest birds; and a gaggle of "on-safari" tourists clothed in khaki
with felt hats and feathers, each carrying lots of cameras and zoom lenses. |
