Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-bellied Prinia sighting in Kinabalu Park on a given day, based on 115 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 100th most-seen of the 247 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.
February, April–May and July–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-bellied Prinia in Kinabalu Park on a given day, against under 5% in March, June and September–January, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Yellow-bellied Prinia 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.
11th of 20
Of the 20 parks where we can rate Yellow-bellied Prinia sightings, Kinabalu Park ranks 11th at under 5%. The best odds are in Danum Valley Conservation Area (Malaysia, about 20%), Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary (Malaysia, about 20%) and Royal Bardia National Park (Nepal, about 20%).
Same family: Cisticolidae
The closest relatives of the Yellow-bellied Prinia that you can see in Kinabalu Park (family Cisticolidae, Cisticolas and Allies) are Ashy Tailorbird (about 10%) and Rufous-tailed Tailorbird (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow-bellied Prinia is recorded against all the birds logged in Kinabalu Park (115 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.
