Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Fasciated Antshrike sighting in Panama City on a given day, based on 34 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 237th most-seen of the 363 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 Fasciated Antshrike in Panama City on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Fasciated Antshrike 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 Panama City, in our data
Panama City is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Fasciated Antshrike sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fasciated Antshrike is recorded against all the birds logged in Panama City (34 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.
