The green white-eye (Zosterops stuhlmanni) is a bird species in the family Zosteropidae. It is found in Tanzania, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The green white-eye was formerly treated as a subspecies of the African yellow white-eye (since renamed the northern yellow white-eye) (Zosterops senegalensis). It is now considered as a separate species based in part on the phylogenetic relationships determined in a 2013 molecular study.
Four subspecies are recognised: Wikipedia →

Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Green White-eye sighting in Kampala on a given day, based on 620 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 44th most-seen of the 332 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Green White-eye in Kampala on a given day, against about 20% in March–April, October and December, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green White-eye sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 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 White-eye sightings, Kampala has the highest daily chance: about 30%. Next come Kigali (Rwanda, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green White-eye is recorded against all the birds logged in Kampala (620 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.
