Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Ferruginous Flycatcher sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 219 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 166th most-seen of the 298 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.
November
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ferruginous Flycatcher in Singapore on a given day, against under 5% in December to October, the lowest months. That is one of Singapore's wettest months, with about 280 mm of rain against 100 mm in February.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Ferruginous Flycatcher sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Ferruginous Flycatcher sightings, Singapore has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Chengdu (China, under 5%) and Bangkok (Thailand, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ferruginous Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Singapore (219 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.
