In 3 days ~10% in a week ~20%
The Chinese penduline tit (Remiz consobrinus) is a species of bird in the family Remizidae. The species was first described by Robert Swinhoe in 1870. It is native to Manchuria. There are 10 species in the family Remizidae. They are similar to true tits, but make characteristic penduline nests. They inhabit open fields and wetlands. They have sharp bill tips and the sexes look alike. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chinese Penduline-Tit sighting in Beijing on a given day, based on 199 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 140th most-seen of the 324 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chinese Penduline-Tit in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in September and November–July, the lowest months. Those are among Beijing's wettest months, with about 70 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chinese Penduline-Tit 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 9
Of the 9 cities where we can rate Chinese Penduline-Tit sightings, Beijing ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Jinan (China, about 10%) and Tianjin (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chinese Penduline-Tit is recorded against all the birds logged in Beijing (199 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.
