Classé par ordre alphabétique
La liste des noms français des oiseaux présents en Afrique du Sud est en partie une reconnaissance du fait qu’une grande partie de la population du continent d’Afrique est francophone. Depuis les élections démocratiques de 1994, des personnes du monde entier, et en particulier des pays d’Afrique, sont venues visiter ou s’installer en Afrique du Sud. Le fait qu’ils soient capables d’identifier nos oiseaux locaux dans leur propre langue, leur fournira un point de connexion précieux avec les mêmes oiseaux ou des oiseaux semblables qui sont résidents ou de passage migratoire dans leurs pays.
Cette liste en français est également une reconnaissance du fait que la personne généralement reconnue comme le premier ornithologue sud-africain était le Français François Levaillant. Levaillant a donné des noms français aux oiseaux en fonction de leurs cris, de leurs comportements ou en reconnaissance de l’aide qu’il a reçue de la population indigène. Des noms d’oiseaux tels que: Bateleur, Tchagra, Coucou de Klaas et Trogon narina ne sont que quelques exemples de noms qui sont encore utilisés aujourd’hui.
The French list of the birds of South Africa is in part a recognition that a large proportion of the people of Africa are French speaking. Since the democratic elections of 1994, people from around the world and especially from other African countries have come to visit or settle in South Africa. For them to be able to identify our local birds in their own language will provide a valuable connection point with the same or similar birds which are resident or passing migratory birds in their countries.
This French list is also a recognition that the person generally recognized as the first South African ornithologist was the Frenchman Francois Levaillant. Levaillant gave French names to birds according to their calls, behaviours or in recognition of the help he received from the indigenous people. Bird names such as: Bateleur, Tchagra, Klaas’s Cuckoo and Narina Trogon are just a few such examples that are still in use to this day.
The English list follows International Ornithological Congress (IOC) version 11.1, with parentheses used to show any BirdLife South Africa names which deviate from IOC. List compiled by Eddie (Edouard) Germiquet
