Bird watching in Gombe Stream is amazing throughout the year; however it is at its best from the month of November up to April as the migratory birds coming from Europe as well as the northern part of Africa arrive.
The resident species begin Nesting almost at the same time therefore it is really easy to see the birds while in breeding plumage. On the other hand, from March up to April the rains make it really challenging to see the birds since most of the forest trails slippery.
Chimpanzee tracking is more rewarding during the dry season, start from June up to October, as they are less challenging to find.
