Vrae wat reisigers vra

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

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

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Secretarybird at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, De Hoop Nature Reserve, Grootvadersbosch Nature Reserve and Amakhala Game 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.

Where can you see the Secretarybird in South Africa?

The Secretarybird is most recorded in Eastern Cape (18% of records), Mpumalanga (17% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (16% of records), based on 1,993 iNaturalist observations. 63 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Secretarybird on site or nearby.

When is the best time to see the Secretarybird?

The Secretarybird 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; Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; De Hoop Nature Reserve: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
