Although much of Botswana is semi-desert, eight
species of kingfishers are resident and a further
species is a visitor. Four of these are fisher
kingfishers and five are woodland kingfishers. Only one
species, the striped kingfisher, is found throughout
much of the country including the dry southwest.
