Okavango Delta

The wildlife of the Okavango Delta is varied and ample because of the rich environments and protection. The Okavango Delta upholds huge convergences of animals on both a super durable and occasional premise. Through cautious wildlife management, it has become maybe perhaps the best spot to see wildlife in Africa. 
Wildlife of the Okavango Delta incorporates a heap of animal categories including African Bush Elephant, African Buffalo, Hippopotamus, Lechwe, Topi, Blue Wildebeest, Giraffe, Nile crocodile, Lion, Cheetah, Leopard, Brown Hyena, Spotted Hyena, Greater Kudu, Sable Antelope, Black Rhinoceros, White Rhinoceros, Plains Zebra, Warthog and Chacma Baboon. Notably, the endangered African Wild Dog still survives inside the Okavango Delta and displays one of the most extravagant pack densities in Africa.

The Okavango has great general wildlife, yet the most widely recognized marsh-adapted animal is the rare red lechwe that can be seen swimming through the water in huge groups. The semi-oceanic sitatunga is more earnestly to find. Other surprising antelope incorporate tsessebe, sable and roan. The Okavango is a great region for wild dogs, which are most effectively noticed while denning. 

The best time to visit the Okavango Delta is the dry season from May to October. In May, June and July, which are the cold weather months, the water levels are high (because of the floods showing up from Angola), which is the best and ideal opportunity for makoro and boat safaris as a greater part of the Delta is available. The dry season likewise offers expanded freedoms for wildlife sightings as the thirsty animals descend in immense numbers to the water.

As one of the world's most prominent sanctuaries – a rich, diverse and unblemished wild the Okavango Delta offers a superb birding experience. This glorious World Heritage Site flaunts more than 400 recorded species of birds. It is very common to spot around 140 species in a day. A sign that the floodwaters are going to show up is the unexpected appearance of many Wattled Cranes, Storks, Herons and Egrets in the Okavango Delta. Many camps in the Delta offer birding walks and mokoro excursions where numerous species can be seen. Some of them, for example, the kingfishers and herons can be firmly drawn closer, particularly by quiet mokoro and sharp photographic artists will be spoiled with photograph openings.

The Okavango Delta offers good year-round birding, the pleasant green season from December-March is the best ideal opportunity for enthusiastic bird watchers as the Palearctic migrants are available and the inhabitant birds are in breeding plumage – the bushveld is alive with birdsong and flashes of colour.
