The Basra Reed Warbler is an endangered small beautiful bird that lives in the Tsavo West National Park. Not many people go to the park with the goal of sighting the bird since the park, together with Tsavo East, are much more famous for their multitude of gigantic elephants, prides of regal lions, crowds of dik-diks, gazelles, impalas, leopards and many more wildlife.
Indeed, the two Tsavos are so rich in biodiversity that a huge chunk of Kenya's 25,000 animal species and 7,000 plant species can be found there.
