Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Blue-capped Redstart sighting in Dehradun on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 224th most-seen of the 280 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 Blue-capped Redstart in Dehradun 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 Blue-capped Redstart sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Blue-capped Redstart sightings, Dehradun ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Srinagar (India, under 5%) and Kathmandu (Nepal, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Blue-capped Redstart is recorded against all the birds logged in Dehradun (19 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.
