Welcome to the Gambia Bird Photography gallery. Here you will find a selection of bird photos from The Gambia and Senegal, taken on our personal bird photography tours. From colourful bee-eaters and kingfishers to herons, raptors and tropical waterbirds, every photo shows what you can expect along the way.
Why The Gambia Is Ideal for Bird Photography
The Gambia is one of the best destinations in West Africa for bird photography. Mangroves, rivers, savannah and forest lie close together, with more than 500 bird species. That means you can photograph many different birds on a single trip, often up close and in beautiful light.
Our Bird Photos from The Gambia and Senegal
Every photo in this gallery was taken on our own bird tours, guided by a local expert. Browse close-ups of bee-eaters and kingfishers, herons on a boat trip through the mangroves, and birds in their natural habitat.
