Vrae wat reisigers vra

’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die African Scops Owl 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 Scops Owl in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the African Scops Owl at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, 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 Scops Owl in South Africa?

The African Scops Owl is most recorded in Limpopo (45% of records), Mpumalanga (39% of records), Eastern Cape (8% of records), based on 400 iNaturalist observations. 43 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the African Scops Owl on site or nearby.

When is the best time to see the African Scops Owl?

The African Scops Owl 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. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
