Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Mountain Tailorbird sighting in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, based on 836 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 40th most-seen of the 367 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Mountain Tailorbird in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, against about 10% in November and December, the lowest months. That is one of Doi Inthanon National Park's wettest months, with about 270 mm of rain against 20 mm in February.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Mountain Tailorbird sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 6
Of the 6 parks where we can rate Mountain Tailorbird sightings, Doi Inthanon National Park ranks 3rd at about 30%. The best odds are in Kinabalu Park (Malaysia, about 50%) and Kerinci Seblat National Park (Indonesia, about 30%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Mountain Tailorbird is recorded against all the birds logged in Doi Inthanon National Park (836 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.
