Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Huet's Fulvetta sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 131st 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.
January
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Huet's Fulvetta in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in February to December, the lowest months. That is one of Hong Kong's driest months, with about 35 mm of rain against 280 mm in June.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Huet's Fulvetta sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Huet's Fulvetta sightings, Hong Kong ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Fuzhou (China, about 10%), Hangzhou (China, under 5%) and Guangzhou (China, under 5%).
Same order: Passeriformes
The closest relatives of the Huet's Fulvetta that you can see in Hong Kong (order Passeriformes, Perching Birds) are Red-whiskered Bulbul (about 90%), Oriental Magpie-Robin (about 80%) and Swinhoe’s White-eye (about 80%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Huet's Fulvetta is recorded against all the birds logged in Hong Kong (23 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.
