Once a huge lake, the Makgadikgadi Pan is now a number of pans interspersed with grassland and surrounded by the great Kalahari sand semi-desert.
The countryside over our 300km journey east of Maun was dry n dusty, so I thought Sua Pan would be dry. As I drove into Nata Sanctuary it seemed I was right:
Ostrich, wildebeest and dry country birds on the dusty road. Larks, Pipits, Sparrow-larks, Chats.
But I was wrong. The pan held lots of water. Whattasight from afar!
Lovely outing. Lazybum Jess dipped out, choosing to lie in and then enjoy a 9am brekker.
