With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rufous-faced Warbler sighting in Changsha on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 58th most-seen of the 67 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Rufous-faced Warbler in Changsha on a given day, against under 5% in February–March, July–September and November, the lowest months. That is one of Changsha's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain against 60 mm in December.
Between 3 and 6 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rufous-faced Warbler sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
8th of 12

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rufous-faced Warbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Changsha (8 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.
