Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green-backed Tit sighting in Chitwan National Park on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 297th most-seen of the 367 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green-backed Tit in Chitwan National Park on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 2 and 5 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green-backed Tit sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
5th of 5
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Green-backed Tit sightings, Chitwan National Park ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taroko National Park (Taiwan, about 50%), Langtang National Park (Nepal, about 50%) and Jiuzhaigou National Park (China, about 30%). All parks ranked.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green-backed Tit is recorded against all the birds logged in Chitwan National Park (11 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.
