Waar om die Kurrichane Thrush in Suid-Afrika te sien

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Kurrichane Thrush at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park, Ithala Game Reserve, Madikwe Game Reserve and Ndumo Game Reserve. 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 Kurrichane Thrush is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (28% of records), Mpumalanga (26% of records), Limpopo (23% of records), based on 1,396 iNaturalist observations. 23 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Kurrichane Thrush on site or nearby.

The Kurrichane Thrush 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; Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; iSimangaliso Wetland Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Ithala Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Kurrichane thrush (Turdus libonyana) is a species of bird in the family Turdidae. It is found in Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Its natural habitat is dry savanna. Its name is derived from Kaditshwene (rendered as 'Kurrichane') in Botswana.
