Etosha National Park is Namibia's premier nature reserve and one of Africa's largest. It has great concentrations of game, especially in the dry winter months, and there are wonderful views out onto the saltpans. It protects 114 species of mammals along with 340 species of birds. Originating as a shallow lake, the Etosha Pan dominates the park and is an immense, flat, saline desert of more than 3500 square miles. Now, in years of good rain, this depression becomes a temporary lagoon full of white pelicans and flamingos. Birdlife around the waterholes is good, with ostrich, pygmy falcon and all the raptors in abundance. Some of the local "specials" include short-toed rock thrush, Hartlaub's francolin, freckled nightjar and Meyer's parrot. Famous for its large herds of elephant, Etosha is also home to lion, leopard, black rhino and all of Namibia's plains game including springbok, gemsbok, and hartebeest.
