Aloe reitzii var. reitzii is a summer-flowering (February–March) succulent, endemic to a restricted range within the heavily transformed grasslands of eastern South Africa. Floral structure and nectar properties suggest bird-pollination. This study investigated the temporal visitation events of birds to this aloe. Extensive camera observations during the 2017 flowering season (23 days) identified both specialist and generalist nectarivorous birds (n = four and five species respectively) as regular diurnal aloe visitors. Malachite Sunbirds (Nectarinia famosa) accounted for 49% of all visits, while Cape Weavers (Ploceus capensis) made up 41% of all visits; these species co-dominate visitation of the specialist and generalist avian feeding guilds respectively. In addition, visitation by each guild was separated temporally to some extent, with generalists mostly visiting early in the day, while specialists dominate afternoon visitation. Nectar volume (overall unbagged mean = 48.67 ± 4.70 µL) and concentration (overall unbagged mean = 10.68 ± 0.21% w/w) remains consistent throughout the day, and are within generalist nectar-feeding bird preferences, which may explain the abundance of Cape Weavers, despite floral morphological traits matching those of specialist nectar feeders. While many summer-flowering aloes are primarily insect- or sunbird-pollinated, Cape Weavers may be supplementing their diets with A. reitzii var. reitzii nectar, and potentially playing a crucial role in pollination.
