Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Drab Seedeater sighting in Lima on a given day, based on 91 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 119th most-seen of the 171 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, and over a week to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Drab Seedeater in Lima on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Drab Seedeater sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Lima, in our data
Lima is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Drab Seedeater sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Drab Seedeater is recorded against all the birds logged in Lima (91 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.
