However very few birders ever venture to areas off this well-beaten track, so with this in mind, I decided to explore a fascinating but ornithologically little known corner of Ethiopia in January 2012, to see what surprises awaited me.

There are always going to be species that will have to be left out of these guides, and though I may miss Allen’s Hummingbird (a bird that has only been definitely identified in the state three times but a lifer for me in 2012), the guide does a good job of covering the basic and interesting residents and migrants.

Families do not hike up mountains to sit all day on pointy rocks to watch woodpeckers. Those cameras are aimed at hawks.
