Wo man den Ludwig's Bustard in Südafrika sieht

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Ludwig's Bustard at stays in or beside Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve and Rocherpan 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.

The Ludwig's Bustard is most recorded in Northern Cape (44% of records), Western Cape (28% of records), Eastern Cape (26% of records), based on 444 iNaturalist observations. 19 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Ludwig's Bustard on site or nearby.

The Ludwig's Bustard 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. Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Rocherpan Nature Reserve: Winter and spring for birds and flowers, Jun-Oct. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
