Waar om die Bar-throated Apalis in Suid-Afrika te sien

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Bar-throated Apalis at stays in or beside Goukamma Nature Reserve, Anysberg Nature Reserve, Gamkaberg Nature Reserve, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Rocherpan Nature Reserve and Kruger National 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.

The Bar-throated Apalis is most recorded in Western Cape (56% of records), Eastern Cape (22% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (7% of records), based on 1,694 iNaturalist observations. 78 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Bar-throated Apalis on site or nearby.

The Bar-throated Apalis 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; Anysberg Nature Reserve: Autumn and spring, Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Gamkaberg Nature Reserve: Autumn and spring, Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The bar-throated apalis (Apalis thoracica) is a small African passerine bird belonging to the genus Apalis of the family Cisticolidae. It is native to the eastern and southern Afrotropics.
