Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Scrub Tanager sighting in Bogota on a given day, based on 87 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 134th most-seen of the 231 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 Scrub Tanager in Bogota on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Scrub Tanager sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Scrub Tanager sightings, Bogota ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Cali (Colombia, about 30%), Medellín (Colombia, about 20%) and Quito (Ecuador, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Scrub Tanager is recorded against all the birds logged in Bogota (87 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.
