Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Many-Coloured Bushshrike sighting in Kibale National Park on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 275th most-seen of the 366 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, and over a week to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Many-Coloured Bushshrike in Kibale National Park on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
3rd of 3

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Many-Coloured Bushshrike is recorded against all the birds logged in Kibale 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.
