 BIRDING
Truly a birders paradise, the Caprivi is home to over 400 wetland and woodland bird species. Regular visitors to our garden, to name just a few, are the Schalow’s Turaco, White-backed Night Heron, African Finfoot, Collared Sunbird, Wood Owl, Marsh Owl and Swamp Boubou.
In close proximity to our lodge you can view the Rock Pratincole and maybe catch a glimpse of Hippo Island's resident Pel’s Fishing Owl. Other specials in the area include the Slaty Egret, Coppery-tailed Coucal, Souza’s Shrike, Copper Sunbird, Rosy Throated Longclaw and African Skimmer.
Great flocks of Carmine Bee-eaters also frequent the area during their breeding season from September to October, their nesting sites an incredible sight to see. |
