Spring and Summer are our rainy seasons, when the surrounding bush is lush and green. Many animals have their young around the rainy seasons and birdwatchers can enjoy the plethora of bird species that have migrated to the park at this time.

Autumn and Winter are dry periods in the bush, when the vegetation is less dense, and game are more visible than usual. Animals also visit the waterholes more often due to lack of abundant water in the bush during water-scarce times of the year.
