With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-spectacled Heleia sighting in Komodo National Park on a given day, based on 26 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 43rd most-seen of the 76 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April, July and October
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-spectacled Heleia in Komodo National Park on a given day, against under 5% in November, the lowest month. Those are among Komodo National Park's driest months, with about 40 mm of rain a month against 200 mm in January.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Yellow-spectacled Heleia sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Komodo National Park, in our data
Komodo National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Yellow-spectacled Heleia sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow-spectacled Heleia is recorded against all the birds logged in Komodo National Park (26 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.
