September
In that month about 70% of wildlife watchers report a Malagasy Featherleg in Ankarafantsika National Park on a given day, against under 5% in November, the lowest month. That is one of Ankarafantsika National Park's driest months, with almost no rain against 560 mm in January. February and March have too few records to rate.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Malagasy Featherleg is recorded against all the insects logged in Ankarafantsika National Park (8 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
