Birdwatching in the Okavango Panhandle, Botswana, is exceptional, with notable species such as the rare Pel’s Fishing Owl, White-backed Night-Heron, African Skimmer, Black-faced Babbler, Brown Firefinch, and the Western Banded Snake-Eagle. In summer, vibrant Carmine Bee-eaters gather in large flocks to nest along the riverbanks. Visitors may also spot hippos, large crocodiles, and elusive aquatic antelopes like the sitatunga, known for their shy nature and strong swimming ability.
