Hope the Shoebill

Rod and I travelled to the Bangweulu Wetlands to find the Shoebill. We spent 3 days in the domba and fell into the rhythm of the bush and the water. We found 5 or possibly 6 new species and met one of the most dedicated conservationists we have ever met - Maggie Hirschauer who runs the Shoebill Captive Rearing and Rehabilitation Facility in collaboration with African Wildlife Conservation Foundation and Asia Cheeta Conservation. The facility, which is the first of its kind in the world, has been installed with state-of-the art incubators and brooders to care for shoebill chicks at every stage of their development.
