Hlane Royal National Park is home to more than 250 bird species. It has a dense population of birds of prey, including five vulture species. In fact, the park sustains the highest density of tree-nesting vultures in southern Africa. Red-billed oxpecker, which was extinct in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), has made a comeback here, and big colonies of red-billed queleas nesting is a sight to behold. Migratory birds are present from November to April.
