This is a stolen photo, but I saw this weird thing on Monday. We were slowly gliding through a papyrus swamp on the edge of Lake Victoria, and there it was. The shoebill stork. It's huge. And we saw it catch a lungfish, after it first just stood there, completely immobile, for quite a while.
On Saturday, it's time for another very rare animal, an even bigger one. The mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.
