Onde ver o Village Weaver na África do Sul

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Village Weaver at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park and iSimangaliso Wetland 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 Village Weaver is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (65% of records), Mpumalanga (13% of records), Eastern Cape (8% of records), based on 2,847 iNaturalist observations. 29 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Village Weaver on site or nearby.

The Village Weaver 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; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Timbavati Private Nature Reserve: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The village weaver (Ploceus cucullatus), also known as the spotted-backed weaver or black-headed weaver (the latter leading to easy confusion with P. melanocephalus), is a species of bird found in much of sub-Saharan Africa. It has also been introduced to Hispaniola, Mauritius and Réunion.
