Just a few metres from your vantage point on the excursion boat, African Elephants drinking water from the banks.
In addition, hundreds of yawning hippos marking out their colonies. Crocodiles tending to their young, protecting their eggs from Hyenas. Meanwhile, a variety of water birds like the knob billed ducks, Egyptian geese, spur winged plovers and the Goliath Herons. Sailing close to breeding colonies of the red throated bee-eaters and the African Pied Kingfishers. There could still be more sightings of Waterbuck, Giant Forest Hog, giraffe or Leopard.
