Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rosy Pipit sighting in Kolkata on a given day, based on 61 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 168th most-seen of the 247 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 Rosy Pipit in Kolkata on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rosy Pipit sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Rosy Pipit sightings, Kolkata ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kathmandu (Nepal, about 10%), Jammu (India, under 5%) and Kunming (China, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rosy Pipit is recorded against all the birds logged in Kolkata (61 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.
