Waar u de White-crested Helmetshrike in Zuid-Afrika ziet

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the White-crested Helmetshrike at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Marakele National Park. 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 White-crested Helmetshrike is most recorded in Mpumalanga (43% of records), Limpopo (33% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (19% of records), based on 880 iNaturalist observations. 21 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the White-crested Helmetshrike on site or nearby.

The White-crested Helmetshrike 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; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; iSimangaliso Wetland Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The white-crested helmetshrike (Prionops plumatus), also known as the white helmetshrike, is a species of passerine bird in the helmetshrike family Prionopidae, formerly usually included in the Malaconotidae.
