The Sichuan tit (Poecile weigoldicus) is a species of bird in the tit family Paridae. It is endemic to central China. This species was formerly treated as a subspecies of the willow tit (Poecile montanus). It was promoted to species status based on a genetic analysis published in 2002. It is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.
Sichuan tit is found in Sichuan, south-eastern Qinghai, and north-western Yunnan provinces. It occurs in a variety of habitats, such as coniferous, mixed and mature deciduous forests, woodland edge, scrub, and urban parks and gardens at altitudes of 0–4,275 m (0–14,026 ft) above sea level.

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Sichuan Tit sighting in Jiuzhaigou National Park on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 61st most-seen of the 131 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.
July, October and December
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Sichuan Tit in Jiuzhaigou National Park on a given day, against about 10% in April–June, August–September and November, the lowest months. January to March have too few records to rate.
Between 3 and 6 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Sichuan Tit sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Jiuzhaigou National Park, in our data
Jiuzhaigou National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Sichuan Tit sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Sichuan Tit is recorded against all the birds logged in Jiuzhaigou National Park (19 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.
