Gelada’s you may find mostly in mountain terrain in the north of Ethiopia. You could be lucky even in Addis but I don’t know any good spot. Better chances you could have around the rifts near Aletu. If you go further and reach out until Debre Sina you can see many of them easily. They are in use to human visitors and will let you come close. Nights in Debre Sina are usually very cold so be prepared if you gone stay.
I’m not too much into birds but before chasing them I would recommend letting them come to you. Because they are very much into teff grains you should pay a visit to a close Teff mill and ask for a kilo or two. People will call you crazy but birds will admire you for this little gems. After feeding them for a view days or weeks you will be greatly rewarded.
