Leaving Etosha NP

It was another early morning with tents down ready for a 7am breakfast of sausages and fried eggs. We were back on the road by 8am and had a slowish game drive as we exited the park. We didn’t see many animals, but we did see:

• Guinea fowl
• Zebra
• Springbok
• White-backed vulture
• Kori bustard
• Pale chanting goshawk
• Black-faced impala

We were disappointed not to have seen lions in Etosha, especially as we had heard about lots of sightings in the days before we arrived in the park. I’m sure we’ll have other opportunities to see them on this trip!
