Newswatch LANGUAGES Arabic Somali French More Last Updated: Tuesday, 2 August 2005, 15:50 GMT 16:50 UK E-mail this to a friend Printable version Country profile: Botswana Botswana is Africa's longest continuous multi-party democracy. It is among the continent's most stable countries, is relatively free of corruption and has a good human rights record. It is also the world's largest producer of diamonds; the trade has transformed it into a middle-income nation. Botswana protects some of Africa's largest areas of wilderness. The country is sparsely populated, because it is so dry. The Kalahari desert, home to the dwindling group of Bushman hunter gatherers, makes up much of the territory and most areas are too arid to sustain any agriculture other than cattle. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA In the late 1800s Britain formed the protectorate of Bechuanaland, preventing territorial encroachment of Boers from the Transvaal or German expansion from South West Africa. In 1966 Bechuanaland became independent as Botswana. Botswana provided a haven for refugees and anti-apartheid activists from South Africa in the 1970s and 1980s, but had to tread carefully because of its economic dependence on the white-ruled neighbour, and because of South Africa's military might.

S heltering in a forest of wild palms and twisting trees, Sandibe Safari Lodge is flanked by channels of the permanent Delta, glinting through the maze of brilliant green papyrus. Behind the lodge, grass-swept floodplains stretch into the distance, casting up silhouettes of lush palm islands. Each of the eight private twin-bedded rooms, have en-suite dressingroom, w/c, open-air shower, fans and private deck. Walls have become airy screens, allowing the gentle Okavango breezes to cool the rooms, which are decorated in a rich and sensuous fusion of ochres and textures, from leather to silk and wood. Private verandahs and decks are idyllic vantage points in this wildlife paradise. At the heart of the camp, within a leafy bower, a soaring abbey of trees forms the central lounge and dining area with quite, hammocked decks affording views across the watery labyrinth and savannahs. At night, its golden light pours onto the leaf-strewn forest floor as the fire and a constellation of candles in the boma halo a table, anticipating a banquet of pan-African cuisine and fine wines on the return of guests from their evening game drive.

Shoulder-Season South America from Away.com DESTINATIONS Birding Adventure in Botswana Experiencing the greatest concentration of species on earth in the Okavango Delta By Bert du Plessis Put it in a bottle, label it 'Okavangeau' and you could make a fortune. It is crystal clear, cool and as natural as anything ever will be. And billions of gallons of the stuff annually pour into one of the world's largest inland deltas, where it transforms an age-old desert into a paradise of palms, papyrus and sparkling clear waterways. From a birder's perspective, the most interesting feature of this lovely water is that it creates an ideal habitat for many water-loving birds. A recent visit to the area produced several highlights, including sightings of Pel's Fishing Owl, Lesser Gallinule, Lesser Jacana, African Crake, Painted Snipe, Longtoed Plover, Greater Swamp Warbler, Pygmy Goose, Wattled Crane, Slaty Egret, Western Banded Snake Eagle, Black Coucal, Brown Firefinch and Dwarf Bittern. advertisement Birds of Botswana , this species of longclaw occurs sparsely from the Okavango Delta northwards. A likely spot was the ankle-high grass in a damp area on the perimeter of Xugana's small, flood-prone landing strip, where prudent local pilots always check out the runway for Red Lechwe (an antelope species) before landing. We were seeing various color morphs of Yellow Wagtail in abundance and plenty of Slaty Egret, but it took a while to locate a longclaw. When one of these birds finally flushed just ahead of us, rising in longclaw fashion with lots of apparently ineffectual fluttering of wings, resulting in its typical short, laboring flight, yours truly's face must have been a study in delight. "Mr Fish" was just as happy.
