We left Tsenub on 27th October & drove slowly to Halali Camp in central Etosha National Park.
Our first stop was at Klein Namutoni. A bush fire had recently gone through this area & birding was generally poor.
Arriving at Halali mid afternoon it was very hot & we settled in to our new accommodation which was very nice, tucked away in woodland close to a koppie.
Spent the late afternoon at the waterhole, which was very pleasant.
The 28th October morning was spent birding around the camp, which was quite good.
We spent the evening at the camp waterhole & it turned out to be a superb spectacle.
On 29th October we visited Goas & Reitfontein in the morning.
In the afternoon it was back at the camp waterhole.
It was time to leave on 30th October & we drove slowly eastward along the C38 road. The first highlight was a wonderful White-headed Vulture circling the road.
Rietfontein waterhole was as busy as ever, without seeing anything outstanding there.
We then meandered around the Salvadora area & struck gold at Charitsaub with two Lionesses being present.
Further on we found a pair of Spotted Eagle Owls nesting on top of a Sociable Weaver colony/nest.
We arrived in camp late afternoon & settled in to our waterhole accommodation.
