The Tanimbar corella (Cacatua goffiniana), also known as Goffin's cockatoo or Tanimbar cockatoo, is a species of cockatoo endemic to forests of Yamdena, Larat, and Selaru, all islands in the Tanimbar Islands archipelago in Indonesia. It has been introduced to the Kai Islands, Indonesia; Puerto Rico; and Singapore. This species was only formally described in 2004, after it was discovered that the previous formal descriptions pertained to individuals of a different cockatoo species, Ducorps' or Solomons cockatoo (Cacatua ducorpsii). Tanimbar corellas are the smallest of the white cockatoos. It is classified as near threatened due to deforestation and cage-bird trade. It breeds well in captivity and a large avicultural population exists.
Tanimbar corellas weigh, on average, about 250 g (9 oz) for females and 300 g (11 oz) for males. They are about 31 cm (12 in) from head to tail. Like all members of the family Cacatuidae, the Tanimbar corella is crested, meaning it has a collection of feathers on its head that it can raise or lower. Its body is mainly covered with white feathers, with salmon- or pink-coloured feathers between the beak and eyes. The deeper (proximal)... Wikipedia →

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tanimbar Corella sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 744 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 83rd most-seen of the 298 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January, April, June–September and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tanimbar Corella in Singapore on a given day, against under 5% in February–March, May, October and December, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Tanimbar Corella sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Tanimbar Corella sightings, Singapore has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Bangkok (Thailand, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tanimbar Corella is recorded against all the birds logged in Singapore (744 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.
