The Kalahari Gemsbok National Park Birds And Birding 76-150
All The Bird Species Of The Kalahari Gemsbok National Park
Including A Bird List
Despite the Kgalagadi's arid and dry land appearance, 306 birds
have been recorded in the park. Of these 306 species only around 100
birds are present in the Kalahari year round. Two thirds of all the
raptor species found in South Africa occur in the
Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, quite amazing! The best places
for birding in this
South African game reserve are the
Auob and Nossob Rivers and the bird/animal hides in the
rest camps. Summer is the best time for bird watching in the
Kalahari Park, Mata Mata, Twee Rivieren and Nossob provide
spectacular birding from where you are staying. Always look out for
Crimson Breasted Shrike, Kalahari Scrub Robin, Sociable Weaver,
Violet Eared Waxbill, White Browed Sparrow Weaver, Great Sparrow and
numerous raptors (Including a variety of Owls) as these birds are
normally present. In the Kalahari bird list below you will find
birds 76-150 that occur in the National Park:
