Vrae wat reisigers vra

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

Which parks and reserves are best for the White-rumped Swift in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the White-rumped Swift at stays in or beside Cederberg Wilderness Area, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Kruger National Park, Anysberg Nature Reserve, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park and Kwandwe Private 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 White-rumped Swift in South Africa?

The White-rumped Swift is most recorded in Western Cape (41% of records), Eastern Cape (17% of records), Gauteng (13% of records), based on 783 iNaturalist observations. 86 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the White-rumped Swift on site or nearby.

When is the best time to see the White-rumped Swift?

Sightings of the White-rumped Swift peak from Oct to Dec, based on 783 iNaturalist records. You may still see it outside those months, sightings are just less frequent.

What is the White-rumped Swift?

The white-rumped swift (Apus caffer) is a small swift. Although this bird is superficially similar to a house martin, it is not closely related to that passerine species. The resemblances between the swallows and swifts are due to convergent evolution reflecting similar life styles.
