Birding in The Zambezi Region
The Zambezi Region (formerly Caprivi Strip) is an excellent bird-watching destination and has over 450 species recorded. It supports many birds not found elsewhere in the country. Most of the Okavango specials can be seen here, including slaty egret, racket-tailed roller and wattled crane. Permanent water in the area makes it a popular stopover for many migrants from Eurasia and elsewhere in Africa, from November to April. A variety of waders is abundant throughout the year.
