The natural serenity that is evident here is due to its distance from industry and the inaccessibility of the reserve for many years. There are over 350 species of bird. These include Somali Ostrich, Grey-Headed Kingfisher, Sunbird, Bee-eater, Marabou Stork, Tawny Eagle, Bateleur, Vulturine Guineafowl, Lilac-Breasted Roller, Palm Nut Vulture, Red-Billed Hornbill, Secretary Bird, Verreaux's Eagle, Superb Starling, Yellow-Billed Hornbill and Vultures.
