Waar om die Black-collared Barbet in Suid-Afrika te sien

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Black-collared Barbet at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, iSimangaliso Wetland Park, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park and Keurbooms River Nature Reserve 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 Black-collared Barbet is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (35% of records), Mpumalanga (19% of records), Gauteng (17% of records), based on 2,835 iNaturalist observations. 43 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Black-collared Barbet on site or nearby.

The Black-collared Barbet 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; Goukamma Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; iSimangaliso Wetland Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The black-collared barbet (Lybius torquatus) is a species of bird in the family Lybiidae. It is found in Sub-Saharan Africa through Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
