Khaudum offers great birdwatching opportunities. It has over 300 species recorded and is a magnet for summer migrants, such as Abdim’s stork, African golden oriole, yellow-billed kite, steppe and lesser spotted eagle. The migratory birds are present from November to April. Although Khaudum offers great birdlife it is a challenging area to both get to and explore. You need to be well kitted out for a trip here and have some wilderness experience in the African bush.

Best Time for Bird Watching
Khaudum can be visited throughout the year. Summer migrants arrive during the Wet season (November to April) and this is when the best bird-watching occurs, although the park becomes very marshy in places and the roads tend to deteriorate. Wildlife viewing is more successful from May to October (the dry months).
