'n Aantekening beteken 'n gasheer het die African Finfoot op die eiendom of naby gesien. Dit is nooit 'n waarborg van 'n waarneming nie.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the African Finfoot at stays in or beside Phinda Private 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.

The African Finfoot 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. Phinda Private Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
