Onde ver o White-fronted Plover na África do Sul

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the White-fronted Plover at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Table Mountain National Park and Kogelberg Nature Reserve 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 White-fronted Plover is most recorded in Western Cape (67% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (18% of records), Eastern Cape (11% of records), based on 2,456 iNaturalist observations. 84 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the White-fronted Plover on site or nearby.

The White-fronted Plover 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; Goukamma Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Addo Elephant National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The white-fronted plover or white-fronted sandplover is a small (45-50 g) shorebird of the family Charadriidae that inhabits sandy beaches, dunes, mudflats and the shores of rivers and lakes in sub-saharan Africa and Madagascar. It nests in small shallow scrapes in the ground and lays clutches of one to three eggs.
