Icthyophaga vocifer
Kruger National Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park and the Okavango Delta are among the 25 atlas places where the African Fish Eagle is recorded. Records concentrate most in South Africa, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Uganda and Botswana, with about 143,000 open records across 18 countries. The map follows where these records gather.
Seasons for recording the African Fish Eagle differ by region, and each place page shows the months where it is recorded there.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the African Fish Eagle as much as where it lives. The atlas keeps a species' 200 best-recorded grid cells, so the map shows where records concentrate rather than its whole range. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
Conservation status not assessed here yet, so every location is generalised to its grid cell.
