Likely
About 50% of wildlife watchers report a Green Oriole sighting in Kakadu National Park on a given day, based on 1,017 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 15th most-seen of the 186 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 90%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and October–November
In those months about 60% of wildlife watchers report a Green Oriole in Kakadu National Park on a given day, against about 40% in May and December, the lowest months. Those are among Kakadu National Park's wettest months, with about 160 mm of rain a month against almost none in August. February has too few records to rate.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green Oriole sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Green Oriole sightings, Kakadu National Park ranks 2nd at about 50%. The best odds are in Daintree National Park (Australia, about 60%). All parks ranked.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green Oriole is recorded against all the birds logged in Kakadu National Park (1,017 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.
