On any day of the week or during a weekend which you seek to conquer stress, consider visiting the Kuimba Shiri Bird Park. The Bird paradise is located about 36 kilometres outside Harare.
Located on the shores of Lake Chivero, Kuimba Shiri is a good choice for those who need a glimpse of awesome bird species. There are numerous birds of all types to marvel at. Ranging from the Eagles which perch very high, falcons, owls and parrots, the pristine environment will leave you asking for more.
There is also a chance of the bird show, where birds are involved in a number of showcasing activities where they exhibit sharp eye and acrobatic manoeuvres. Headlining the bird show is the legendary African Fish Eagle (Haliaeetus vocifer) Zimbabwean Bird, better known as Hungwe which is endemic in water bodies. Its presence at Kuimba Shiri reminds us of our rich African heritage.
The birds at this sanctuary range from small and big birds with both unique habitat needs. The work being done by Kuimba Shiri on conserving birds and raising awareness about the importance of birds in the ecosystem, is very critical in the process of raising awareness about ecological protection. For the traveller, this is yet another unique destination to boost your collection of travel destinations.
Peacocks showcase their colourful feathers to attract their mates, whilst the parrots seem to be talking to the guests. Whatever the case may be, do not touch the parrots as they may bite you.
