Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Illadopsis sighting in Kibale National Park on a given day, based on 486 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 46th most-seen of the 366 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and December
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Illadopsis in Kibale National Park on a given day, against about 20% in May–June and August–September, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Brown Illadopsis sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Brown Illadopsis sightings, Kibale National Park has the highest daily chance: about 30%. Next come Semuliki National Park (Uganda, about 20%) and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (Uganda, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brown Illadopsis is recorded against all the birds logged in Kibale National Park (486 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.
