Vrae wat reisigers vra

’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Great Sparrow op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Great Sparrow at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Ai-Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park and Mapungubwe National Park.
