A spectacular photo of a Sitatunga as it leaps into a deep channel in the Okavango Delta. This photo was taken by our local guide Obed based at Camp Okavango. Sitatunga are well adapted to the swamp conditions of the Okavango Delta but are rarely seen making this a very special sighting. #OkavangoDelta #Botswana #BotswanaSafari #Sitatunga #Wildlife #CampOkavango #DesertDelta

Baboon in the Chobe National Park waking up in the early hours. Took this photo while out on game drive with @chobegamelodge - we were searching for lion but sometimes the best pics are with the more commonly seen animals. #thisischobe #botswana #botswanasafari #wildlifephotography #baboon #canon #7d #travelphotography #afritravel #desertdeltasafaris
