September and October in the region are the end of the long dry season. It is super dry, especially in October, and very H-O-T. Animals begin to congregate around the few remaining sources of water. Many animals survive on the water that seeps into holes dug by elephants in otherwise dry river beds. Although uncomfortably hot from Noon until sundown the animal viewing is at its best. Not only do the animals gather near the few remaining water sources, there is little grass or foliage that has not died from heat and lack of water. There is little place to hide so the views are incredible.
