Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Japanese Accentor sighting in Sendai on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 95th most-seen of the 107 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.
January and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Japanese Accentor in Sendai on a given day, against under 5% in February–October and December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Japanese Accentor 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 Sendai, in our data
Sendai is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Japanese Accentor sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Passeriformes
The closest relatives of the Japanese Accentor that you can see in Sendai (order Passeriformes, Perching Birds) are Brown-eared Bulbul (about 90%), Cinereous Tit (about 80%) and Eurasian Tree Sparrow (about 80%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Japanese Accentor is recorded against all the birds logged in Sendai (8 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.
