Onde ver o Greater Kestrel na África do Sul

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Greater Kestrel at stays in or beside uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Table Mountain National Park, Ai-Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park and Golden Gate Highlands National 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 Greater Kestrel is most recorded in Northern Cape (54% of records), Western Cape (10% of records), North West (9% of records), based on 390 iNaturalist observations. 48 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Greater Kestrel on site or nearby.

The Greater Kestrel 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. uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Addo Elephant National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Table Mountain National Park: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The greater kestrel or white-eyed kestrel (Falco rupicoloides) is a bird of prey belonging to the falcon family Falconidae. It is one of the largest kestrels and is found in open country in southern and eastern Africa.
