Before you go

What are the chances of seeing a Long-billed Thrush in Kathmandu?

Rare

Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Long-billed Thrush sighting in Kathmandu on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 284th most-seen of the 312 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, if each day is a fresh chance.

When is the best time to see a Long-billed Thrush in Kathmandu?

Any time of year

In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Long-billed Thrush in Kathmandu on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.

What time of day is best to see a Long-billed Thrush?

Between 8 and 11 am

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Long-billed Thrush sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Where else can you see a Long-billed Thrush?

Only Kathmandu, in our data

Kathmandu is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Long-billed Thrush sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

Where does the Long-billed Thrush sighting chance come from?

GBIF citizen-science records

It is estimated from how often the Long-billed Thrush is recorded against all the birds logged in Kathmandu (10 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.
