With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pink-billed Lark sighting in Etosha National Park on a given day, based on 217 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 101st most-seen of the 260 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Pink-billed Lark in Etosha National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March and May, the lowest months. That is one of Etosha National Park's driest months, with almost no rain against 75 mm in January.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pink-billed Lark sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Etosha National Park, in our data
Etosha National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Pink-billed Lark sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pink-billed Lark is recorded against all the birds logged in Etosha National Park (217 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.
