Recorded year-round
Recorded in every month, so no month is the wrong month to look. We would rather say that than invent a best time.
Curve from 3,142 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Una segnalazione significa che un host ha visto questa specie (African Hoopoe) nella struttura o nei dintorni. Non è mai una garanzia di avvistamento.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the African Hoopoe at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Gondwana Game Reserve and Welgevonden 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 African Hoopoe is most recorded in Western Cape (29% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (19% of records), Eastern Cape (13% of records), based on 3 142 iNaturalist observations. 106 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the African Hoopoe on site or nearby.
The African Hoopoe 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; Gondwana Game Reserve: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Welgevonden Game Reserve: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
