Onychognathus morio
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
Records exist for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December. A quiet month can mean the animal was absent, or that nobody was looking.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 9 squares of 25 km carry records for Red-winged Starling in and around uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, and the 5,936 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Table Mountain, Kruger and Addo Elephant National Park are among the 23 atlas places where the Red-winged Starling is recorded. Its records concentrate in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Zambia and Kenya. The atlas holds about 177,000 records of Onychognathus morio across eight countries, and the map shows where these records concentrate.
Of the 74 species with an atlas page recorded in and around uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, the Red-winged Starling is the 8th most recorded.
