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.

Ein Nachweis bedeutet, dass ein Gastgeber den Fiery-necked Nightjar auf dem Grundstück oder in der Nähe gesehen hat. Eine Sichtung ist nie garantiert.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Fiery-necked Nightjar at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Welgevonden Game Reserve and Marakele National 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 Fiery-necked Nightjar is most recorded in Western Cape (36% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (26% of records), Limpopo (12% of records), based on 828 iNaturalist observations. 70 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Fiery-necked Nightjar on site or nearby.
The Fiery-necked Nightjar 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; Welgevonden Game Reserve: May-Sep, dry season; Marakele National Park: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
The fiery-necked nightjar (Caprimulgus pectoralis) is a species of nightjar in the family Caprimulgidae, which occurs in Africa south of the equator. Its distinctive and frequently uttered call is rendered as 'good-lord-deliver-us'. It is replaced in the tropics by a near relative, the black-shouldered nightjar.
