Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black-throated Babbler sighting in Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 178th most-seen of the 231 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 Black-throated Babbler in Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Black-throated Babbler sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 5
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Black-throated Babbler sightings, Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taman Negara National Park (Malaysia, about 20%), Khao Luang National Park (Thailand, under 5%) and Sepilok (Malaysia, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black-throated Babbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary (19 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.
