Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Warbler sighting in Addis Ababa on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 64th most-seen of the 109 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May–August and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Warbler in Addis Ababa on a given day, against under 5% in September and December–April, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Brown Warbler sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Brown Warbler sightings, Addis Ababa has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Nairobi (Kenya, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brown Warbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Addis Ababa (14 verified sightings), 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.
