Nata Bird Sanctuary

The Nata Bird Sanctuary is home to many species of African mammal wildlife and birdlife; in fact, most of the animals in this protected area are African birds - reinforcing the name of 'Nata Bird Sanctuary'. Coming to the Nata Bird Sanctuary on Botswana Safari will bring you to the homing grounds for so many birds, including Flamingos, Pelicans, Ducks, Geese, Ostriches, Kingfisher Eagles, Spoon Bills and more. There are about 165 bird species that can be found in the Nata Bird Sanctuary.

The Nata Sanctuary becomes a wonderful paradise for the water-loving birds especially when the Nata River flows into the terrain, making it the perfect water area for the birds. The physical beauty of this area of Botswana is magnificent; many safaris in Botswana list the Nata Bird Sanctuary on the itinerary because it is located on the edge of the Sowa Pan - with almost half of the Nata Reserve itself resting in the pan.  This makes it a particularly important part of the Botswana ecosystem and allows for maximum wildlife concentrated in a relatively small area.
