Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Green-backed Tit sighting in Kunming on a given day, based on 32 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 33rd most-seen of the 99 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
September
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Green-backed Tit in Kunming on a given day, against about 10% in March, August and October, the lowest months. That is one of Kunming's wettest months, with about 100 mm of rain against 10 mm in February.
Between 2 and 5 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green-backed Tit sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
2nd of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Green-backed Tit sightings, Kunming ranks 2nd at about 20%. The best odds are in Guiyang (China, about 60%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green-backed Tit is recorded against all the birds logged in Kunming (32 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.
