With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Green Crombec sighting in Kampala on a given day, based on 288 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 81st most-seen of the 332 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Green Crombec in Kampala on a given day, against under 5% in April, the lowest month. That is one of Kampala's driest months, with about 55 mm of rain against 190 mm in April.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green Crombec sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Green Crombec sightings, Kampala has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Yaoundé (Cameroon, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green Crombec is recorded against all the birds logged in Kampala (288 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.
