Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hainan Blue-Flycatcher sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 53 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 113th most-seen of the 204 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.
August
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hainan Blue-Flycatcher in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in September to July, the lowest months. That is one of Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain against 25 mm in December.
Between 3 and 6 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hainan Blue-Flycatcher 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.
Among the best
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Hainan Blue-Flycatcher sightings, Hong Kong ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Guangzhou (China, under 5%) and Hanoi (Vietnam, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hainan Blue-Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Hong Kong (53 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.
