It's our last full day in Savuti. We head out in the afternoon and film an elephant at Rhino Vlei. Then we move across to Marabou Pan and find a Martial eagle on a guineafowl kill. We head back to camp and enjoy a glass of chilled white wine on our last night in Savuti, Botswana.

In this series we are on safari filming in Savuti, Linyanti, and the Chobe Waterfront. Savuti is part of the Chobe National Park in North-Eastern Botswana. It is famous for its lions and elephants. The Savuti Channel cuts through the area between rocky outcrops then empties into the Savuti Marsh. The channel is currently dry (and has not flowed for nearly 2 decades), but there are pumped waterholes for the animals, and the roots of the large trees along the banks of the channel can reach the water deep underground.

Filmed and edited by Robert Hofmeyr and Andrew Caldwell.

Behind-the-scenes shot on a GoPro Hero 10. For the telephoto wildlife shots we used a Canon 200-400mm f4 lens on a Red V-Raptor camera. Moving shots were done using a Red Komodo 6K with a Sigma 18-35 f1.8 or Canon 14mm f2.8. Aerials filmed using a Mavic Air 2s.
