Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Yuhina sighting in Kaeng Krachan National Park on a given day, based on 184 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 193rd most-seen of the 360 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.
January to March
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Yuhina in Kaeng Krachan National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April to December, the lowest months. Those are among Kaeng Krachan National Park's driest months, with about 45 mm of rain a month against 260 mm in September.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Striated Yuhina sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Striated Yuhina sightings, Kaeng Krachan National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Royal Manas National Park (Bhutan, about 20%) and Namdapha National Park (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Striated Yuhina is recorded against all the birds logged in Kaeng Krachan National Park (184 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.
