The rufous-throated honeyeater (Conopophila rufogularis) is a species of bird in the family Meliphagidae. It is endemic to northern Australia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical mangrove forests, but it also functions well in urban environments due to the lack of nest predators. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rufous-throated Honeyeater sighting in Litchfield National Park on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 102nd most-seen of the 110 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rufous-throated Honeyeater in Litchfield National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July and September–May, the lowest months. Those are among Litchfield National Park's driest months, with almost no rain against 400 mm in January.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rufous-throated Honeyeater sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Rufous-throated Honeyeater sightings, Litchfield National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Nitmiluk National Park (Australia, about 10%) and Kakadu National Park (Australia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rufous-throated Honeyeater is recorded against all the birds logged in Litchfield National Park (11 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.
