Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hill Blue Flycatcher sighting in Bangkok on a given day, based on 58 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 182nd most-seen of the 277 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hill Blue Flycatcher in Bangkok on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 3 and 6 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hill Blue Flycatcher 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.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Hill Blue Flycatcher sightings, Bangkok ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kunming (China, about 10%) and Hong Kong (China, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hill Blue Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Bangkok (58 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.
