We flew into the Okavango Delta on these small five-seater aircraft. They flew low over the ground, so we had a good view of the landscape and animals.

This was the first time we had seen Cape Buffalo, a large herd of them. They are the most dangerous animal in Africa, for humans at least, but we were safe in the aircraft.

The small aircraft dropped us on one of the larger islands in the Delta. From there we drove to a launching place where we got into these mokoros and were poled to our camp site, which was on a different island about an hour and a half away by boat.

During the mokoro trip, we passed some islands where a large flock of storks, pelicans, and egrets were roosting and nesting. We could hear the noise for quite some time before we actually came into sight of them.
