Watch flamingos on the pan in front of the Baines' Baobabs
Kudiakam Pan, Botswana
Experience the Kudiakam Pan after rainfall with flocks of lesser and greater flamingos against the backdrop of the Baines’ Baobabs.
What you can experience here
After rainfall the Kudiakam Pan turns into a shallow lake, often making the drive to the Baines’ Baobabs impossible. The pan becomes extremely slippery and even powerful vehicles can get stuck. But it is still worth visiting. The flooded pan attracts flocks of lesser and greater flamingos. While lesser flamingos feed on algae, greater flamingos filter shrimps and crustaceans from the water – hatched from eggs that have waited for years beneath the surface for the right conditions. Stay on the marked tracks to protect this fragile ecosystem.
