With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Green-headed Oriole sighting in Gorongosa National Park on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 123rd most-seen of the 250 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Green-headed Oriole in Gorongosa National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to October, the lowest months. March and December–January have too few records to rate.
Only Gorongosa National Park, in our data
Gorongosa National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Green-headed Oriole sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green-headed Oriole is recorded against all the birds logged in Gorongosa National Park (23 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.
