South Luangwa National Park is well known for its colonies of colourful southern carmine bee-eaters. This species of bee-eater is a summer migrant to Zambia, arriving in late August and early September where they gather in their hundreds and select a breeding site on the steep sandy banks of the Luangwa River.
