Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Eyebrowed Wren-Babbler sighting in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, based on 117 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 200th most-seen of the 367 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
December and January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Eyebrowed Wren-Babbler in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February to November, the lowest months. Those are among Doi Inthanon National Park's driest months, with about 45 mm of rain a month against 340 mm in August.
Between 1 and 4 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Eyebrowed Wren-Babbler sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Eyebrowed Wren-Babbler sightings, Doi Inthanon National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kerinci Seblat National Park (Indonesia, about 20%) and Namdapha National Park (India, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Eyebrowed Wren-Babbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Doi Inthanon National Park (117 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
