Recorded year-round
Recorded in every month, so no month is the wrong month to look. We would rather say that than invent a best time.
Curve from 50 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Which parks and reserves are best for the Suni in South Africa?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Suni at stays in or beside Kruger National Park and Ndumo Game Reserve. 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.
Where can you see the Suni in South Africa?
The Suni is most recorded in KwaZulu-Natal (100% of records), based on 50 iNaturalist observations. 42 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Suni on site or nearby.

Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Ndumo Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
