Waar u de Narina Trogon in Zuid-Afrika ziet

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Narina Trogon at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Phinda Private Game Reserve, Grootvadersbosch Nature Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park and iSimangaliso Wetland Park 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.

The Narina Trogon is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (48% of records), Western Cape (30% of records), Mpumalanga (8% of records), based on 630 iNaturalist observations. 44 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Narina Trogon on site or nearby.

The Narina Trogon 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; Kwandwe Private Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Phinda Private Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Grootvadersbosch Nature Reserve: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Narina trogon (Apaloderma narina) is a largely green and red, medium-sized (32-34 cm long), bird of the family Trogonidae. It is native to forests and woodlands of the Afrotropics. Though it is the most widespread and catholic in habitat choice of the three Apaloderma species, their numbers are locally depleted due to deforestation.
