Lake Chilwa Wetland by Roman Bruehwiler
Lake Chilwa Wetland is important for its waterfowl population. The lake has no outlet, and the level of water is greatly affected by seasonal rains and summer evaporation. It is also used extensively for fishing by the local communities; bird hunting is also carried out.
