Waar om die Collared Sunbird in Suid-Afrika te sien

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Collared Sunbird at stays in or beside Goukamma Nature Reserve, Kruger National Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Table Mountain National Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Tsitsikamma 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 Collared Sunbird is most recorded in Western Cape (93% of records), based on 6,354 iNaturalist observations. 54 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Collared Sunbird on site or nearby.

The Collared Sunbird 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; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Table Mountain National Park: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The southern double-collared sunbird or lesser double-collared sunbird (formerly placed in the genus Nectarinia), is a small passerine bird which breeds in southern Africa. It is mainly resident, but partially migratory in the north-east of its range.
