Zulu Nyala is situated in an area of Kwazulu Natal known for excellent birding. The park is, however, very small and the vegetation is a mix of indigenous and exotics. The guides focus more on finding flagship mammal species and might not really be expert birders themselves. There are no checklists, but there is a good variety of birds in the park. Migratory birds are present from November to April.
Best Time for Bird Watching
Bird watching in Zulu Nyala is best from November to April, when migrant species from the northern hemisphere can be found. Wildlife viewing is best during the dry winter months.
