Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Syrian Serin sighting in Ramallah on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 113th most-seen of the 118 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.
December
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Syrian Serin in Ramallah on a given day, against under 5% in January to November, the lowest months. That is one of Ramallah's wettest months, with about 85 mm of rain against almost none in August.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Syrian Serin 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 Ramallah, in our data
Ramallah is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Syrian Serin sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Syrian Serin is recorded against all the birds logged in Ramallah (5 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.
