Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tristram's Bunting sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 157th most-seen of the 204 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 Tristram's Bunting in Hong Kong on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tristram's Bunting is recorded against all the birds logged in Hong Kong (16 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.
