Vrae wat reisigers vra

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

Which parks and reserves are best for the Mountain Wheatear in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Mountain Wheatear at stays in or beside Cederberg Wilderness Area, Anysberg Nature Reserve, Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve, Ithala Game Reserve, Marakele National Park and Swartberg Nature 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.

Where can you see the Mountain Wheatear in South Africa?

The Mountain Wheatear is most recorded in Northern Cape (32% of records), Western Cape (29% of records), Gauteng (21% of records), based on 868 iNaturalist observations. 30 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Mountain Wheatear on site or nearby.

When is the best time to see the Mountain Wheatear?

The Mountain Wheatear 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. Cederberg Wilderness Area: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Anysberg Nature Reserve: Autumn and spring, Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve: Autumn and spring, Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Ithala Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

What is the Mountain Wheatear?
