The two-barred warbler (Phylloscopus plumbeitarsus) is a bird of the leaf warbler family (Phylloscopidae). The species was first described by Robert Swinhoe in 1861. It was formerly included in the "Old World warbler" assemblage. It is closely related to the greenish warbler, to which it was formerly considered conspecific.
It is found in northern Mongolia, Manchuria and southern Siberia. They are a migratory species. Before the autumn migration, both adults and juveniles molt. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Two-barred Warbler sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 20 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 180th most-seen of the 266 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 Two-barred Warbler in Guangzhou on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Two-barred Warbler sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
8th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Two-barred Warbler sightings, Guangzhou ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Hanoi (Vietnam, about 10%), Beijing (China, about 10%) and Hong Kong (China, under 5%).
Same genus: Phylloscopus
The closest relatives of the Two-barred Warbler that you can see in Guangzhou (genus Phylloscopus, Leaf Warblers) are Dusky Warbler (about 10%), Yellow-browed Warbler (about 10%) and Pallas's Leaf-Warbler (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Two-barred Warbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Guangzhou (20 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.
