Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a White-winged Woodpecker sighting in Dushanbe on a given day, based on 68 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 21st most-seen of the 96 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a White-winged Woodpecker in Dushanbe on a given day, against about 10% in April–May, July and December, the lowest months. That is one of Dushanbe's wettest months, with about 50 mm of rain against almost none in August.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most White-winged Woodpecker sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate White-winged Woodpecker sightings, Dushanbe ranks 3rd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tashkent (Uzbekistan, about 20%) and Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White-winged Woodpecker is recorded against all the birds logged in Dushanbe (68 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.
