After the summer rains the pans fill up to a depth of a few centimetres, alerting the fish and aquatic shrimps they have been lying dormant in the mud. This forms the breeding ground for the fabulous flamingos, pelicans and sometimes waders that are attracted by the rich food supply. The grasslands of Makgadikgadi National Park are home to a large number of antelope. These attract an impressive range of predators. The best time to visit this area to coincide with the migration is from December to March or in the dry season from April to October when the pans are dry.
