Likely
About 50% of wildlife watchers report an Ayeyarwady Bulbul sighting in Yangon on a given day, based on 116 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 14th most-seen of the 66 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 90%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 70% of wildlife watchers report an Ayeyarwady Bulbul in Yangon on a given day, against about 40% in January, the lowest month. That is one of Yangon's wettest months, with about 280 mm of rain against almost none in February. April has too few records to rate.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Ayeyarwady Bulbul sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
5th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Ayeyarwady Bulbul sightings, Yangon ranks 5th at about 50%. The best odds are in Bangkok (Thailand, about 80%), Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam, about 70%) and Phnom Penh (Cambodia, about 70%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ayeyarwady Bulbul is recorded against all the birds logged in Yangon (116 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.
