Vrae wat reisigers vra
’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Barn Swallow op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Barn Swallow in South Africa?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Barn Swallow at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Cederberg Wilderness Area, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Anysberg Nature Reserve, Gamkaberg Nature Reserve and Kgalagadi Transfrontier 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 Barn Swallow in South Africa?
The Barn Swallow is most recorded in Western Cape (34% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (24% of records), Mpumalanga (11% of records), based on 2,243 iNaturalist observations. 100 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Barn Swallow on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Barn Swallow?
Sightings of the Barn Swallow peak from Nov to Mar, based on 2,243 iNaturalist records. You may still see it outside those months, sightings are just less frequent.
What is the Barn Swallow?
The barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) is the most widespread species of swallow in the world. It is a distinctive passerine bird with blue upperparts, a long, deeply forked tail and curved, pointed wings. It is found in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. In Anglophone Europe it is just called the swallow; in Northern Europe it is the only common species called a "swallow" rather than a "martin".
