Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Illadopsis sighting in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park on a given day, based on 31 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 260th most-seen of the 400 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, and over a week to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Illadopsis in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park on a given day, against under 5% in June to April, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Brown Illadopsis sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Brown Illadopsis sightings, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kibale National Park (Uganda, about 30%) and Semuliki National Park (Uganda, about 20%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brown Illadopsis is recorded against all the birds logged in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (31 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.
