Opis
This little pan in Kruger National Park is a fantastic wet-season birding spot. Regular residents include Red-billed Buffalo-Weaver, Egyptian Goose, Knob-billed Duck, and African Jacana, while more unusual visitors such as African Pygmy-Goose and Dwarf Bittern add to the excitement.
The pan is marshy, with hidden patches of open water, and can appear empty at first glance. Only to suddenly reveal a host of birds concealed in the grass moments later. It’s a place that rewards patience and careful scanning.
During the dry months, the pan becomes a dusty bowl with far less birdlife. Even then, it’s still worth a visit. The short drive in is lined with open grass patches, ideal for spotting lapwings and other ground birds, as well as acacia shrubs where you might find Stierling's Wren-Warbler or the well-camouflaged Pearl-spotted Owlet.
As an added bonus, the pan occasionally delivers an unexpected wildlife sighting, making each visit a little adventure of its own.

Dostęp
Leeupan is near the Tshokwane Picnic site in the Kruger National Park off the H1-2. Access is by vehicle only as like most of the water points in the park you are not allowed to get out of your vehicle. It is tar road most of the way to the pan so is easily accessible by a normal sedan.

Be patient. Much of the open water is hidden by the long grass so at first glance the pan may look empty, so spend a little time to see what pops up out of the grass.
