Vrae wat reisigers vra

’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die African Palm Swift op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.

Which parks and reserves are best for the African Palm Swift in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the African Palm Swift at stays in or beside Goukamma Nature Reserve, Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park and iSimangaliso Wetland Park and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.

Where can you see the African Palm Swift in South Africa?

The African Palm Swift is most recorded in Gauteng (33% of records), Mpumalanga (15% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (14% of records), based on 502 iNaturalist observations. 43 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the African Palm Swift on site or nearby.

When is the best time to see the African Palm Swift?

The African Palm Swift is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Goukamma Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

What is the African Palm Swift?

The African palm swift (Cypsiurus parvus) is a small swift. It is very similar to the Asian palm swift, Cypsiurus balasiensis, and was formerly considered to be the same species.
