Messing about on the river
Messing about on the river - Okavango River that is
We spent the whole day drifting about on the river.
African Fish Eagles were a regular and magnificent sight
Viewing wildlife from the comfort of the boat
And there was plenty to see!
the scenery was pretty good too..
African Skimmers were encountered regularly, wonderful birds
Bizarre birds and we soaked up the close views
Huge beds of Papyrus reeds are home to many birds
Including the tiny but perfectly formed Malachite Kingfisher
With the sun sinking we headed home, a wonderful day!
Lots more pics to come, check back soon!
