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 Klaas's Cuckoo auf dem Grundstück oder in der Nähe gesehen hat. Eine Sichtung ist nie garantiert.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Klaas's Cuckoo at stays in or beside Kruger National Park and Sabi Sand 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 Klaas's Cuckoo is most recorded in Western Cape (53% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (27% of records), Eastern Cape (6% of records), based on 944 iNaturalist observations. 11 places to stay on Spekboom in Mpumalanga have recorded the Klaas's Cuckoo on site or nearby.
The Klaas's Cuckoo 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; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
The Klaas's cuckoo (Chrysococcyx klaas) is a species of cuckoo in the family Cuculidae which is native to the wooded regions of sub-Saharan Africa. The species was named by French explorer François Le Vaillant after his Khoikhoi servant. Le Vaillant was the only colonial biologist to name some bird species after local people.
