Oiseaux de Djoudj National Park

The Ouiseaux du Djoudj National Park lies on the north bank of the River Senegal in Senegal, north east of St-Louis. It provides a range of wetland habitats which prove very popular with migrating birds, many of which have just crossed the Sahara. Of almost 400 species of birds, the most visible are pelicans and flamingos. A wide range of wildlife also inhabits the park, which is designated a World Heritage Site.
