Bird watching in Namibia is incredibly a perfect activity to do because of the numerous bird species that go up to 700 from September to April after arrival of migratory birds since the country has few resident birds. Some of the common bird species include pale chanting goshawk, greater kestrel, shaft-tailed whydah and more. Endemic birds species in Namibia include Damara red-billed hornbill and dune lurk.
September to April makes the best time for bird watching because birds from Europe and North Africa will have arrived. Besides, this is the rainy season when most bird species of Namibia breed and also are commonly seen at any points of water. The best spot for birding is Etosha national park which records over 350 bird species including Monteiro’s hornbill, lesser flamingo, black chested prinia, double-banded courser and many more.
