Since her first bird walk at the Nairobi Museum car park in February 1971, she has been doing it virtually every Wednesday morning. FLEUR NG’WENO, a mother, writer, editor and a naturalist shares the story of her journey with birds, and how she strikes a balance between all that with JECKONIA OTIENO

Until I met Fleur Ng’weno, I never had an idea what bird watching is all about, or rather I didn’t have interest in these creatures.
