Birds & Birding in Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi Safaris Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi Game Reserve is a fantastic birding destination. Thanks to its varied habitats, it’s excellent for both woodland birds and waterbirds. The guides here tend to be knowledgeable bird-watchers, which helps keen birders not familiar with the area. Mokoro trips provide a good opportunity for photography, as birds are more likely to let you come close due to the quiet nature of the mokoros gliding on water. One of Moremi’s most sought-after specials is the rather ordinary-looking slaty egret. Another wetland special is the gracious wattled crane.

Best Time for Bird Watching

Moremi offers very good bird watching year-round, but the best time is during the wet months, from November to April. This is when summer migrants from Europe and North Africa make the reserve their temporary home. April might be the best option, as from January to March many areas become inaccessible and some lodges close. Wildlife viewing is better during the dry months from July to October.
